SCHOTTEL offers a wide range of main and auxiliary propulsion systems for yachts. This paper will present characteristics of different propulsion solutions: The 5-bladed controllable pitch propeller for highest propulsive efficiency for changing speed or load or the EcoPeller with best values in overall efficiency and course stability. It provides unprecedented performance and ensures that its owners benefit from low fuel consumption and thus reduced emissions and operating costs.Thanks to an installation flush with the hull, the pump jet is ideal for operation in extremely shallow waters. It can be used as manoeuvring aid, additional booster or take-home device. Low-vibration and low-noise rim thruster enables more comfort on board.
