Description

The EX series Bow Thruster can be installed in most boats between 20 and 45 feet. These pod thrusters are an excellent choice where a tunnel thruster cannot fit, or as an extremely compact stern thruster. They are also especially good for retrofitting. The flexible mounting at the extreme bow of the boat hull allows a deeper position underwater which creates an optimal leverage compared to conventional thrusters.
