An exemplary propulsion arrangement includes at least one propulsion unit situated at the stern of a ship having a hull with a horizontal water line (WL) and a center line (CL). The propulsion unit can include a hollow support structure attached to the hull, a chamber attached to the support structure, an electric motor within the chamber, a propeller at the front end of the chamber, and a pivotably supported rudder at the rear end of the chamber. The propulsion unit can be mounted so that the shaft line (SL) forms a vertical tilt angle (α) in a range of 1 to 8 degrees in relation to the water line (WL) so that the front end of the chamber is lower than the rear end of the chamber in relation to the water line (WL).
