This is a semi-scale assembly of the Volvo Penta IPS (Inboard Power System). It is designed to be functional, rather than detail exact.

The main idea behind the full scale design is that the propellers operate in undisturbed water.
This is a heavily "in progress" project that I'm publishing now because I've made a decision to go forward with another project, and it would be a bit sad to have this project just laying around so I figured better publish it so that someone can have fun with it rather than leaving it unused. Maybe I'll build it myself later, as I would like to build a Delta 54 IPS with three of this, which would be truly awesome. :) but I have another big project that I've decided to go for instead now.
So if you haven't figured it out yet, I haven't assembled this myself. I've printed a couple of the parts and checked that they do print, like the pod. But from t
