Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0300252A1] The variable-pitch propeller (5) is fastened to a guide body (2) pivotable about an axis (9) and can be lifted above the water surface by pivoting of the guide body (2). Consequently, an adjusting device arranged on the hub (11) of the variable-pitch propeller (5) and rotating with the propeller hub (11) can be set without problem by means of a handle (15), as a result of which a noticeable saving in fuel is obtained by setting the pitch of the propeller blades in accordance with the style of sailing intended. <IMAGE>
