These are being used frequently on the ultra high-horsepower / high-speed rigs. In other words, a boat doing @ 40 knots turning a BIG shaft. My point being that the benefits may not be as compelling on slower boats turning a smaller shaft. Just food for thought if anyone was considering a retrofit.
