Crafted with high-quality materials, this 12V thruster delivers 55 kgf of thrust, ensuring smooth and precise control during docking and navigation. Its compact design features a 6-inch diameter tunnel, making installation easier compared to larger units with standard 7.3-inch tunnels, and reducing the need for extensive modifications. This thruster's robust construction and thoughtful engineering make it an excellent choice for boat owners seeking durability and ease of use.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe VETUS 55 kgf thruster incorporates several advanced features to optimize performance and minimize noise. The single propeller design generates less flow disturbance within the tunnel, contributing to more efficient thrust and quieter operation. The unique blade shape minimizes cavitation noise, while spiral gears help reduce transmission sounds, creating a quieter environment onboard. The flexible coupling between the tailpiece and motor absorbs vibrations, enhancing overall stability. Its streamlined tailpiece promotes optimal flow, and the corrosion-resistant synthetic propeller reduces weight while increasing longevity. The unit is straightforward to install, with comprehensive instructions provided, and it complies with EMC requirements for reliable electromagnetic compatibility. Suitable for a wide range of vessels, the VETUS Bow Thruster offers a practical, high-performance solution for boat owners seeking enhanced maneuverability and control on the water.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003e55 kgf of thrust for powerful maneuvering\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eCompact 6-inch tunnel diameter for easier installation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSingle propeller design reduces flow disturbance\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eUnique blade design minimizes cavitation noise\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSpiral gears decrease transmission noise\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eFlexible coupling eliminates vibration for smoother operation\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eStreamlined tail piece for optimal water flow\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eSynthetic propeller resists corrosion and reduces weight\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eEasy installation with clear instructions\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eMeets EMC requirements for electromagnetic compatibility\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"VETUS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44553638019114,"sku":"55278","price":1650.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0692\/2285\/8794\/files\/55278XL.jpg?v=1783672384","url":"https:\/\/atticusgoods.com\/products\/vetus-bow-thruster-55-kgf-12v-for-yachts-and-powerboats","provider":"Atticus Goods","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
