ABSTRACT:
A steering device, particularly attractive for use with power driven boats, is in the general shape of a cylinder positioned aft, or rearwardly, of the propeller employed, and is arranged to direct the flow of the propelled water in the direction in which the boat is intended to be turned, so as to afford an improved handling of operation. In a preferred embodiment, the diameter of the cylinder is selected to encircle the propeller driving the power boat.
