The manufacturer claims its prod- uct is a revolutionary invention that will open new avenues for both shipowners and builders. The CAP system eliminates the need for a rudder, and is designed to improve maneuvering and steering, as well as lower installa- tion costs and fuel costs. The Swedish company set out to provide a unique, yet simple design. The CAP Propulsion unit combines propulsion, steering and steering gear, and thrust bearing into one common unit. It consists of a fixed-pitch propeller with three, four, five, seven or nine blades; thrust and radial roller bearings; CAP position adjusting hubs; a twin cardan joint; an inter- mediate shaft; a hydraulic CAP position control unit; and a flexible coupling.
