A sealing arrangement is used when mounting a thruster in a well box attached to a hull of a marine vessel. The well box has an axis, a bottom flange, a top flange, an annular wall therebetween and hoisting pipes fastened parallel with the axis to the bottom flange radially outside the annular wall. Both the well box and a mounting flange have at least one surface acting as a sealing surface between the well box and the thruster. At least one of the surfaces has a groove for a seal for preventing water from entering the well box. The well box has a rotationally symmetric wall with an internal guide surface and the mounting flange of the thruster has an axially extending rotationally symmetric part provided with an outer surface having means for sealing the mounting flange in relation to the well box.

Disclosed are a propulsion system for a ship, a method of assembling the same, and a method of disassembling the same. The propulsion system for the ship includes: a rear propeller fixed to a rotary shaft; a front propeller that is rotatably supported on the rotary shaft in front of the rear propeller; a contra-rotating device that is mounted in an installation space at a rear end of a hull so as to reverse the rotation of the rotary shaft and transmit the reversed rotation to the front propeller; a propeller connecting member that connects the contra-rotating device and the front propeller to transmit a rotational force; and a thrust supporting device that is provided between the contra-rotating device and the propeller connection member to support thrust of the front propeller.

A method for disassembling and/or assembling an underwater section of a retractable thruster unit of a swimming vessel. A supporting cradle is detachably fixed to the underwater section from below, and the thruster unit is lifted so that the underwater section is at least partly brought inside the well formed in the bottom of the vessel. Lifting wires of an auxiliary lift are connected to the supporting cradle for supporting the thruster unit. Water is drained from the well, and the lower gear is disengaged and the intermediate section and the lower gear are sealed. After that water is let to ingress into the well and the underwater section is lowered down by the auxiliary lift to dock bottom or sea bed, from where the underwater section is picked up with a crane.

An assembly in a marine vessel includes a unit arranged in a water tight chamber opening in a hull of a vessel, wherein the unit is adapted to extend into the water below the vessel when at a mounted position. A connection path between an inside and an outside of the vessel is provided with a sealing system and the sealing system divides the connection path into an outside connection path portion and an inside connection path portion. The assembly includes a gas inlet system opening to the outside connection path portion.

A system for lifting thrusters of vessels enabling for maintenance to be safely provided on the thrusters, wherein the system can include a lifting means with a line and a connector to engage thrusters or portions of thrusters. A transport device can be connected to the lifting means for transporting the thrusters or the portions of the thrusters. Clamps can secure thruster mounting flanges to thruster well bottom flanges. A conduit with a controller and a pump can allow water to flow into and out of the thruster wells. Seals adjacent the thruster mounting flanges can provide a connection between the flanges. A plurality of alignment guide plates can be disposed concentrically around the thrusters in the thruster wells and for a rough alignment of the thrusters to the thruster mounting flanges. Fasteners can secure the thruster mounting flanges to the thruster well bottom flanges.
