A saildrive on a boat is an arrangement of an inboard motor that is about a sailboat's equivalent of a motorboat's sterndrive, also known as an outdrive. The difference is the drive unit (downleg and propellor) sticks out of the bottom of the hull of the boat, instead of from the stern. It is much different from a traditional inboard motor, as it has no prop shaft. A saildrive resembles the bottom part of an outboard motor; this opts for a smaller arrangement inside the boat, which in turn will create more internal space.
