Abstract: A ship is disclosed which can include a hull, at least one propulsion unit having a propulsion engine, transmission, at least one propeller connected via the transmission to the propulsion engine, and an oscillation sensor situated in a vicinity of the at least one propeller in order to sense cavitation of the at least one propeller. A control unit can control the propulsion engine, the oscillation sensor being connected to the control unit, whereby the output signal of the oscillation sensor is analyzed in the control unit to detect and indicate that a worse degree cavitation is emerging on a display unit at the navigation bridge and/or regulate the rotation speed and/or the power of the propulsion engine.
