Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2017050386A1] The present invention relates to a method of maneuvering a marine vessel, the marine vessel having a hull with a longitudinal centreline and at least two tunnel thrusters arranged in the hull at right angles to the longitudinal centreline, each tunnel thruster having a fixed pitch propeller with a rotational speed in a preferred rotational direction for delivering a positive thrust, the positive thrust of a first tunnel thruster of the at least two tunnel thrusters having a direction opposite to that of a second tunnel thruster of the at least two tunnel thrusters, the method comprising the steps of, delivering, when no maneuvering action is desired, a constant equal positive thrust by both tunnel thrusters, and increasing, when a maneuvering action is desired, the rotational speed of the first tunnel thruster to increase the positive thrust of the first tunnel thruster.
