In preparation for doing a repower in a couple of months, I am also doing research and collecting the other components for several upgrades while the boat is in the yard. The boat currently does not have a bow thruster, so I am looking for opinions of which brands to consider. The boat will not be equipped with a hydraulic pump, so the thruster will be electric and my first thought is to keep it simple at 12V. The boat is 40’ (34’ 7” LWL) by 13’ 8”, 30,000 pounds, 4’ draft. My current short list is the Side Power SE 80/185 T or the Vetus BOW7512D.
Thanks.
