10. STERN TUBE
"The Stern Tube, at the bottom of the ship, is what connects the engine (inside the ship) with the propeller. Inside the stern tube is the propeller shaft, which, driven by the ship's engine, rotates and therefore turns the propeller round. If the stern tube gets damaged, the ship may not be able to use it's propeller."

“stern tube” tubo de popa

Explanation:
The tube through which the propeller shaft of a steamship is passed for connection to the propeller.

Since propeller is the "hélice", this tube's location seems to be sufficient to give its name.
