Mike,
I don't know where you get your information from. Most probably from your own sales propaganda. My approach to props are simple. Prop RPM determines the diameter. That's a fact. The next variable is how many blades. For 90% of the folks out there, 3 Blade is the best combination of control and efficiency. As far as the pitch goes, maybe increase the pitch a bit, maybe not, who cares. The diameter is the most crucial dimension. All the hoopla Torqeedo and the like are making about how special their props are is mostly marketing and based little in fact.
With respect to terminology, POD drives and Saildrives are often referring to one in the same. A pod drive eliminates the need for shafts, struts, and rudders. Instead of using traditional running gear to transfer the engine's power into thrust, a "pod," consisting of the transmission, outdrive, and propeller(s), is mounted right through the bottom of the boat. If the folks on this forum want to call it a Saildrive, that's OK with me.
With respect to the removal of the Anode, no, it does not require the removal of the prop and why would you make the assumption it does?
Since you obviously seemed to be interested in taking shots at me, I have absolutely no interest in sharing information with you.
Why don't you just do this. If there are features and benefits that you like about your product, tell the folks about it and let the product do the talking instead of trying, without justification, to criticize others. I think you should keep you opinions to yourself, especially when there is basis of fact and is nothing more than your personal opinion or some sales brochure you read.
