the propeller shaft in the after peak tank is provided with inboard and outboard seals.these seals contain nitrile rubber or viton lip seal which seals against the bronze liner shrunk fit around the cast iron propeller shaft.after a few years it creates grooves on them and naturally looses sealing and sea water can easily find its way inside.this reduces the lubrication effect and creates wear if the bronze liner.now as there is enough clearance the shaft will come down by certain amount because of the propeller weight.this drop in propeller shaft is termed as propeller drop and is measured by POKERS gauge.

None ! Air-boats are powered by a huge fan on the back, which channels huge volumes of air over large fins which steer the boat left and right - which means it has no need for a propeller in the water.
