Prop Rotation

Post by AMCarter3 »

Which way to my two props rotate? I'm assuming both props turn outward, so that the port prop turns counter-clockwise and the Strb turns clockwise. So the port would be called a LEFT hand prop, the strb is a RIGHT hand prop. Is this correct?

Hi Mac,

Correct….Starboard prop is a right hand propeller, it turns clockwise looking from stern to the bow. Port is left hand rotation, ccw looking from stern to bow.

Thanks,
Doug
