Brushless bow thruster 65 kgf, thrust force, extended run time.
At the top of this advanced range of thrusters, VETUS offers the BOW PRO Boosted 42, innovative and significantly different from existing thrusters. All the features of the amazing BOW PRO, but with an added bonus! There is a third connection on the motor, leading current to an internal charger which steps up the voltage from 12 to 24V, thereby enabling a 12V charging source such as the propulsion engine alternator to charge a 24V battery bank. Connecting the BOW PRO Boosted directly to a 24V power supply is also possible, of course. The built-in charger recharges your battery bank when the thruster is not in use, doubling the value of having the BOW PRO Boosted thruster on your boat.
Recommended battery sizes for the BOW PRO Boosted series are slightly larger than those advised for conventional DC thrusters, to take full advantage of the motor efficiencies and consequently lengthy run times of these thrusters.
The presence in about forty countries and the range of over ten thousand different types of hoses, both mandrel built and long length, allow THOR Group to stand as a reliable partner with innovative and patented hoses designed by its own technical office and hoses built according the most important national and international norms.
