Bowthruster

posted 05-26-2014 by Patrik

After having sailed and docked in the Stockholm archipelago during a couple of years with my Hulter 356, we decided that a bowthruster will be very useful. 9 times of 10 we doch with the bow and often in narrow and shallow areas.
The solution is a SidePower SE60 with e 185 mm tunnel. It is placed under the v-berth just behind the watertank. The work is meda by a professional and part of it by myself.
The pictures shows how the installation is made, before and after
