Re: Why the difference between 2 sets of props?

Mark, it's a fixed trim plate which seems to support the rudder stocks as well. A number of Ferrettis I've seen have this arrangement. I guess it's because the engines on some Ferretti models (mine included) are located well aft and send the drive forward thru V drive gearboxes. I think the trim plates are there to provide additional lift to counteract the weight of the engines
