PROPELLER, BOW THRUSTER Right Hand (41100698)

The bow thruster is a propulsion device used to improve agility on specific types of ships. Bow thrusters are devices that propel a boat's bow or stern through the water in either direction. Can be installed as standard equipment on new boats or retrofitted on yachts over 45 feet. Volvo Penta Propeller, Bow Thruster Right-hand (41100698) permits a boat to shift to the side (port or starboard) without using the engine or rudder to propel it forward or backward.

Key Features:

• Severe winds — With thrusters installed, a skipper won't have to worry about strong gusts causing them to veer off course.

• Strong currents - at sea and in the dock, side push helps to counter strong currents.

• In a crowded dock, the skipper can use a thruster to turn the boat into place without having to move forward.

• A thruster may give a skipper a lot of confidence in knowing that they can operate their boat in any weather state. A captain is also less reliant on having a crew to assist with docking with bow thrusters.

• A thruster can help position the boat such that an angler near the stern has the best chance of landing a game fish if an angler is fighting it.

• Return on investment — bow thrusters are a popular improvement that can increase the value of your boat when you sell it.

• The use of bow thrusters is as simple as pressing a button.

• Increased boat utilization – when the weather isn't ideal, having bow thrusters might mean the difference between taking the boat out and staying at home.
