SKU: BOWA0651

$4,999.00 $5,719.18

Description

The VETUS BOW PRO thruster combines proven induction motor technology with fully proportional digital control. The brushless motor requires no carbon brush maintenance and delivers endurance-rated run time at reduced thrust — limited only by your battery bank. Built-in over-temperature and low-battery protection make it highly resilient in demanding manoeuvring situations.

Control is via VETUS proprietary CANBUS (V-CAN) protocol. Two fully proportional panels are available: the BPPPA (standard) and BPPJA (with lock-and-hold for easy docking). BOW PRO thrusters share tunnel sizes with current VETUS thrusters and many other brands, making retrofits straightforward.

* After the given runtime at maximum thrust, power may reduce. At less than full power, run time depends on battery capacity. VETUS strongly recommends using original V-CAN connection cables for optimal performance.
