whether it's a stream of bubbles or a milky cloud depends on depth, amount of cavitation, speed of prop in relation to current speed, etc.

Just cuz hollywood chooses to show a stream of bubbles doesn't mean that's how it is. You can hear explosions in space in movies too . . . .

You are correct though in the fact that the bubbles appear near the tip of the prop.
