An interesting photograph, for those who have an interest in the minutae of support vessel designs and operations. This is a view of the stern of the KL Brevikfjord which is an STX PSV 06. The aft aziprops are visible and it can be seen that they are provided with contra rotating propellers. It is therefore likely that the pods have to be rotated for the ship to go astern.
