Default Volvo Dual Prop Alignment

Hello I have a 8.1 DP-2 Dual prop, I am just wondering to the props have a certain stager to them. I have never owend a dual prop before. Do both props meet up top and the same time or are they 180 degrees off.

I am no expert on these but I was told by several people who run them that the props should NOT pass each other under the cavitation plate. this is supposed to be so the water between the blades is the same every time they pass, if they pass under the cav plate is forces the water back down between the blades. hope that helps.
