Thanks to modern technology, sophisticated design, and robust construction, this 12 V thruster delivers reliable performance and utmost precision for safe and confident maneuvers in maritime use.
Powerful design for demanding water sports applications
The bow and stern thruster BOW5512D features impressively strong performance: 3 kW power and a thrust force of 550 N (55 kgf) provide reliable support when maneuvering sports boats and yachts.
Reliable and safe for everyday boating
As a 12 V system, the thruster requires a fuse of 250 A and a suitable battery of approximately 100 Ah (depending on cable length). The robust construction and use of high-quality components ensure durability, easy maintenance, and high operational safety.
Maritime comfort meets technical accuracy
The design of the BOW5512D features installation with a flexible coupling system and low-noise, low-vibration gear, minimizing noise generation and reducing vibrations. The robust plastic propeller is corrosion-resistant, lightweight, and provides consistent thrust in both directions.
Technical details
Designed for boats with a length of approximately 9 to 11 m, the bow and stern thruster can be flexibly integrated into various water sports applications. The tunnel has an inner diameter of 150 mm and a length between 300 mm and 600 mm, allowing for flexible installation. Weighing only about 20 kg, the system is lightweight and easy to use.
Note: Boat length values are approximate only. Values may vary greatly depending on the type of boat. Please make sure to check the values by calculation.
