COMPACT RETRACT THRUSTER CR70/80 (PZ)

Retractable thrusters are easily installed far forward in the bow whilst still achieving the required immersion depths, even in todays modernperformance sailing yachts. This results in a thruster that has a good turning effect on the yacht, often even allowing a unit with a lower thrust ratingthan its tunnel equivalent to be used with excellent results.When retracted these units have no affect on the yachts drag and therefore do notreduce sailing performance in light winds.Furthermore, retractable units minimise loss of buoyancy. The weight of water in a tunnel thrusters tubeis an often neglected factor that can affect a yachts performance. Retractable thrusters minimise this problem as
