ABSTRACT:
A marine rudder comprises a generally S-shaped rudder plate having a pair of semi-circular concave portions. The rudder plate is connected to the stern of a ship such that the semi-circular concave portions of the rudder plate are disposed on opposite sides of an axis of rotation of the propeller and in the path of a rotary flow produced by the propeller so that the semi-circular concave portions convert the rotary flow produced by the propeller to principally linear flow.
