By mounting entirely outside the hull under the bow, the EX95 bypasses the need for massive internal tunnel structural modifications, making it a revolutionary solution for complex hull types.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003eThis product includes the \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"4\" data-index-in-node=\"26\"\u003esubmerged pod thruster unit only\u003c\/b\u003e, making it the ideal choice for replacement configurations, custom project integrations, or multi-thruster network builds where you already own or are separately sourcing the wiring, switches, and control panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTrue External Pod Design:\u003c\/b\u003e Positioned entirely outside the hull under the bow waterplane, the EX95 requires no internal tunnel layout.
