Vetus BOW9512/24D Bow Thruster 95 kgf

Vetus BOW9512/24D Bow Thruster 95 kgf

The Vetus BOW9512/24D Bow Thruster is designed for vessels between 12 and 17 meters in length, offering exceptional thrust performance with a 950N (95 kgf) rating at 12V and 1050N (105 kgf) at 24V. This powerful thruster ensures easy maneuverability in confined spaces, with a 5.7 kW (8 hp) reversible DC motor for high reliability. Its 185mm tunnel diameter provides efficient water flow, while its 30 kg weight (without tunnel) makes it suitable for larger vessels. Available in both standard and fireproof versions, this thruster guarantees safe and efficient operation in marine environments.
