A Revolution in Propulsion A Rim Drive contains it's electric winding in the outer (stator) housing. This housing is casted to avoid any use of sealings. The inner housing which contains the magnets is also potted to avoid any internal corrosion. The bearing system is water lubricated and will last for thousands of hours by normal use. The combination of the inlet ring, outlet ring and propeller makes it the most efficient way of propulsion. Each part has been simulated via CFD analysis and intensively tested in real circumstances. Why a Rim Drive? The POD 3.0, 5.0 and 11.0 can be switched...
