fitting props in correct rotation

fitting props in correct rotation

Is one of the motors geared to give opposite rotation? Left and right props must turn in opposite rotation. It seems that the prop with the larger wash is turning correctly, and the other must turn in the opposite direction by reversing the motor leads or using a gearbox.

Thanks Trev , That is how i fitted them and the motors all running in same direction but the boat gives out a load of wash from the rear so i am guessing the rotation is incorrect.
