Retractable Thrusters
Retractable thrusters are generally installed in sail boats that have insufficient depth of hull on the bow for traditional bow thrusters to work effectively. They can also be fitted to the
stern of boats normally on sail boats.
More expensive than standard thrusters with more moving components, but very reliable and essential in decking and mooring vessels.The SR series retractable thruster is the newest addition to the Side-Power thruster range and is ideal for boats where traditional thrusters are unsuitable.
Without compromising Sidepower’s reputation for reliability and safety, the SR thrusters deploy and retract straight out of the hull quickly and seamlessly, creating minimal drag and giving maximum control.
The SR-series thrusters also incorporate the advanced features from the SE-series tunnel thrusters.
