VETUS BOW PRO 761 Bow Thruster 76KGF - 12V [BOWA0761]

Ships Direct From Manufacturer 

BOW PRO 761 Bow Thruster 76KGF - 12V

The BOW PRO thrusters are fitted with proven induction technology. This system makes the use of carbon brushes obsolete. As a result, the bow thruster is very quiet and has indefinite* run-time! The (AC) induction motor is controlled by the VETUS MCV motor controller. This in-house-engineered motor controller can handle both 12V, 24V and AC motors, making the new bow thruster suitable for almost all boats!

The BOW PRO thruster is controlled by a proprietary CANBUS protocol. There are two different panels available for this thruster; one fully-proportional basic panel and one fully-proportional panel with lock-function. This allows the boat to be moored without the use of ropes. Letting passengers board your vessel have never been this easy! Evolution is to continue on a set of good properties, so there are similarities with its predecessors: remained are the very silent propeller blades and the streamlined tailpiece. Retrofitting a BOW PRO thruster, therefore, is a piece of cake as the new motor is interchangeable with the tailpiece and flange of our thruster range.

Features:

• Range of Boat Size: 35ft - 39ft
• Thrust in pounds force: 167 lbs
• Motor horse power: 6
• Tunnel- center line below the waterline: 185MM
• Voltage: 24V
•  Precision proportional control
• Endurance Rated Run-time - up to 10 minutes (dependant on model) at full power
• Maintenance-free brushless motor
• Sealed ingression protection construction - motor sealed for improved corrosion resistance in damp bilge environments
• Built-in over-temp and low battery voltage protection
• Suitable for high demanding applications (e.g. for use in rental & charter vessels)

VETUS GRP Stern Thruster Tunnel - Diameter 185mm [STERN185P]

GRP Stern Thruster Tunnel - Diameter 185mm

Combining a VETUS stern thruster with a VETUS bow thruster will provide even greater maneuverability for your boat in locks or harbors. By placing a side-directional thruster in the bow and another one at the transom, everything from docking and sailing away to finding a spot in the lock or marina becomes child’s play! Even the effects of wind and current can be effectively countered. 

Installation of a VETUS stern thruster is simple. The electric motor and other electrical components are fitted internally to the transom of the boat. The stern thruster tunnel and the propeller are installed externally on the transom.

Note:

• The range of seven different stern thruster kits can make 14 different stern thruster models
• These kits may also be used with ‘ignition protected’ thrusters and extended-runtime thrusters

Specifications:

• For Thruster Models: BOW60, BOW75, BOW95, BOW95HYDR, BOWA0651, BOWA0761, BOWA0764, BOWB065, BOWB076, BOWB090, BOWB110, BOWB130
• Internal Tunnel Diameter: 185mm
