pod propulsion. An advanced engine system used by cruise ships that results in the virtual elimination of ship vibration. Also called azimuthing pod propulsion.
In context . . .
"The azimuthing pod propulsion system is a relatively recent high-tech installation. It replaces conventional propeller shafts, propellers and rudders, negates the need for stern thrusters, and saves valuable machinery space."
