With regard to naval architects and engines, I remember hearing a few years
ago that a U.S. warship under construction had been discovered to have
incompatible directions of rotation for the engine(s) and propellor(s).
(Incompatible with forward motion :-)  At the time, it was reported that
no decision had been made as to which one would be reversed.

Does anybody know which ship had this problem, and how it was solved?
