Yacht Thruster Advantages

Superior Leverage
Yacht Thruster’s mounting position is lower in the water and further forward providing an increased effective thrust level due to the leverage of its mounting position.

Quiet operation
Yacht Thruster is less than one-half the operating noise of comparable thrusters.

Easy and quick as a thru-hull fitting to install
Yacht Thruster out of the water installation takes only a few hours. Our watertight sealing system makes installation simple and Yacht Thruster bow and stern systems fit both Power and sail. No Fiberglass lamination required.

Maintenance free
Yacht Thruster require no maintenance other than normal bottom paint, and the sealed housings are specially treated so that they will not deteriorate from electrolysis.

Virtually no resistance in the water
Tank testing proves that water resistance under power is less than .09% (nine hundredths) power loss, under sail is .05% (five hundredths) loss under sail comparder to a tunnel thruster at 10% sail handicap, and equivalent to the drag of only a folding propeller. Click here to see the full results.
