This document summarizes topics related to ship hydrodynamics, including marine propellers, maneuvering, and steering. It covers propeller theory, design, and testing; equations of ship motion; turning, course keeping and stability; steering mechanisms; and maneuvering in restricted waters. Methods for powering, propeller flows, efficiency, cavitation, and hull interaction are discussed in the marine propellers section.
