VETUS V-DOCKER Tunnel Thruster Kit

The V-DOCKER works with a single (mechanically controlled) engine and a combination of a bow and stern thruster. Only this combination ensures an optimal use of the generated forces, giving you the power exactly where you need it! Where other systems make use of opposing forces situated at the stern of the boat, the VETUS system just needs a nudge of the thruster to tip the bow in the right direction. Direct forces, just plain and easy point and go!

Because of the precise cooperation between thrusters and engine, drifting will be a thing of the past. Unlike expensive systems that claim to work without thrusters, the V-DOCKER system evenly distributes the forces over the front and rear of the boat. Manoeuvring your boat in a tight spot has never been easier. The subtle black styling of the joystick allows retrofitting on existing vessels, as it will match your other controls perfectly. This sail-by-wire system replaces your mechanically controlled throttle lever, enabling single-handed boat control! It works with both inboard and outboard engines.

The V-DOCKER has an IP65 rating and complies with: EN60529:1991+A1:2000+A32013, ISO25197:2012, ISO964/IEC61000-4-8, IEC 60533:1999, EN61000-4-6:2009/-4-3:2006 and EN61000-4-4:2004.
