Vetus Retractable Thruster Kit 160KGF
Vetus Retractable Thruster Kit - easy docking, no drag, less noise
Even for the more experienced skipper it can be difficult to manoeuvre the boat in harsh wind conditions and strong currents. The Vetus retractable thrusters can be placed in shallow parts of the hull and will not disturb its smooth lines. This low drag solution will make your docking experience easier, faster and just plain more enjoyable.
Optimum forward placement in the bow, while maintaining depth by deployment. Less noise and vibration as it is not directly connected to the hull. Optimum tunnel length with minimal losses. Virtually no marine growth, as there is no light when thruster is in retracted and closed position. May be placed in the stern in (both sailing and motor) boats where it is not possible to install a tunnel thruster.
Available with joystick or touchpad control. 24VDC.
