Take command of tight marina berths and tricky anchorages with the Vetus BOW PRO 761 — a fully proportional, brushless bow thruster engineered for serious boaters who demand precision and reliability. With 760 N (76 kgf) of thrust and a maintenance-free induction motor, this is the thruster you install once and trust for years.
Unlike conventional thrusters, the BOW PRO uses a brushless induction motor controlled by the VETUS MCV motor controller, delivering endurance-rated run time at reduced thrust — limited only by your battery bank. Built-in over-temperature and low-battery protection keep the system safe under pressure, while digital CANBUS (V-CAN) control enables proportional response and future integration into boat-wide electronics.
Designed to share tunnel sizes with existing VETUS thrusters and many other brands, the BOW PRO 761 is a straightforward upgrade for boats already fitted with a 185mm tunnel.
