What is an Azipod? A Game-Changer in Ship Propulsion ⚓✨ An azipod is a revolutionary ship propulsion system that combines an electric motor and propeller in a pod capable of 360-degree rotation. This innovative design offers unparalleled maneuverability, making docking and navigation easier for vessels. Ships equipped with azipods benefit from fuel efficiency due to reduced drag, which lowers operating costs and carbon emissions. The system operates quietly, reducing noise and vibrations, ideal

The sheer size of the Azipod propulsion unit is IMMENSE! 🛳 | UNILAD Tech
