Ding ding ding ding.. give this man a cigar!

The water flowing over the stopped surface fo the blade makes one heck of a cavitation noise. Move the flat of your hand through water rapidly and you will get the idea.
Fair point, but there are different types of shafts and propellers. So depends. Maybe for it to slow down significantly so it is still rotating but not as fast as it was while you were going 25 kts in the simulation, that would add a missing piece.


Lol am I the only person who finds the propeller thing kinda getting rusty? lol All I wanted to say with that propeller is that small things can make the difference in game play and how the player perceives and enjoys the game as a result of excellent realism.
