German term or phrase: Homokonet ( Scatra )
Hello all!
This is part of a brochure about yacht charters, and this is from the specifications for one of the yachts. I have no idea what the following phrase means - any ideas?

"Wassergekühlte Schraubenwelleanlage mit Homokonet ( Scatra )"

Many thanks!

constant-velocity joint (Scatra)
Explanation:
With thanks to Edith for recognising the typo.

Homokineet is Dutch for 'homokinetic' and is apparently the Dutch jargon term for a constant-velocity universal joint (as used in all front-wheel-drive cars and 4WD vehicles, or in this case for a propeller shaft).
