A bow or stern thruster makes sailing a lot easier. How? While sailing slowly, it enables you to make a weir beam to port- or starboard – thereby greatly improving the manoeuvrability of your boat. This is especially helpful when mooring or sailing away from locks or harbours, in busy areas or with a lot of wind.
A bow thruster is installed in the fore ship, a stern thruster in the stern. A combination of the two is also possible, making your boat even more flexible
Most of own fleet of about 80 rental boats have a bow and / or stern thruster – we know its convenience. Also, our engineers know better than anyone how to install these thrusters. We always opt for the most reliable installation with a separate fuse, main power switch and extra battery. This ensures maximum thrust.
Having a bow thruster installed does not have to take a long time – our engineers can install a complete bow thruster in a yacht within two days. The exact installation period and rates depend, among other things, on the type of boat and the type of bow thruster you’d like us to install.
