Now Sabb that types , came as with tradisional gear or variable pitch propellor.
What type is your's ?
Is the sound when propellor is on, your engine could be out of line. If the
engine is out of line a bearing could be worn, case pitch propellor , there are
a coupling that could be adjusted wrong, maby the propellor sharft is bended or
a blade is dameaged.

Thank's for your answer! I think it's a variable pitch propellor (the
blades are removable). We had an expert (and I MEAN expert )
helping us installing the engine into our boat (a small oak fishing
boat). Previously we had a Volvo Penta MD1, so he had to construct a
brand new engine bed (which led to improved stability etc). From what
I saw and understand the engine line couldn't get much better than it
is now. The sound is mainly when driving forward at less velocities.
