Creator's Key Takeaways

what an a aod is is a 250 ton pot that hangs down from the stern of the ship there's a huge motor in there that drives a huge propeller

we also have powerful bow thrusters up forward so that when the ship needs to maneuver in port or alongside or anything else you can actually turn that ship literally maybe not on a dime but a quarter

each pot is 20 megaw that's a whole heck of a lot of power that's more power than a medium-sized city has

they are manufactured in helsink Finland before the actual propellers are mounted on on the azipods
