Hi Art,

"In mine, I want the resistance to be there. But no cavitation. Bubbles form when a pump is inefficient, as well known to your swimming coach. You might want your torso to cut through the water, but you want your hands and feet to meet resistance to your arm and leg muscles."

I can't agree more. When I say, "having less resistance", I am referring to the underside where the propeller is spinning against our red block. That's a void area. I "think" the water will be better it comes from the top and flows to the sides, not to the backside of the engine block.

Also, it's how you grab that water. I really don't think that angle is helping but it's not for a space bus as you have mentioned earlier.

So much for resistance. . . I don't why I am so obsessed with that propeller.

Just wondering, if I make you that plexi plate, two plates so that we can compare side by side. How would you manage the water flow from one end to the other?

Thank you as always.
