BOW PRO Boosted 180 kgf Bow and stern thruster bundle - thruster with stepless and brushless AC motor - 48V (24V), - tunnel Ø250mm.
Vetus BOWPRO Boosted 180kgf bow and stern thruster set
In this set we have assembled the parts for an installation of BOWPRO bow and stern thruster. The set is based on 2 x Vetus 180kgf BOWPRO thrusters which in performance fit the boat size from 45 to 65 feet.
BowPro thrusters have variable speed and in this configuration a Vetus Canbus joystick has been added from which you can operate both thrusters
Features:
Variable speed
Operate one or both thrusters at once
Turn the knob on the joystick in the direction you want and the boat rotates on its own axis
Move the joystick to the side and both thrusters run and move the boat to the side
Move the joystick to the side and a little forward and now add a little more power to the bow thruster and a little less to the aft propeller (or vice versa)
Press the button on the top of the joystick and the speed of the thrusters is now kept at the current speed, when the joystick is operated again, hold function ceases.
We have chosen this configuration as it fits most boats - Variables to be assessed are especially cable and tunnel length.

Main cable dimensions and battery recommendation
For a BowB180, a battery with a CCA value of at least 525CCA must be used (this is the battery's ability to deliver a large amount of amp in a short time.
If cables over 95mm2 are used, an extension set type BOWHPCK must be purchased.
