Bow & Stern Thruster Easy Docking Panel - 12/24V
This control panel combines the functions of twin joysticks into one easy to operate knob. The simple and intuitive control action ensures that operation of both bow and stern thruster together becomes a smooth procedure. The use of Hall effect sensors in this control panel means there are no holes in it and it is therefore completely watertight to IP 67.
Features:
Protected against accidental or unauthorized operation
Panel power on indicator
Control circuit overload protection
Built-in time lapse device when reversing the direction of rotation
Automatic switch off after 30 minutes inactivity. This feature is user selectable during installation
In the event of continuous running for more than 2 minutes there is a warning LED and buzzer and the thruster will switch off automatically. The panel will reset itself after 5 seconds.
Watertight to IP 67
Dimensions: 85mm x 138mm

GRP Stern-Thruster - Tunnel Diameter 185mm
Combining a VETUS stern thruster with a VETUS bow thruster will provide even greater maneuverability for your boat in locks or harbors. By placing a side-directional thruster in the bow and another one at the transom, everything from docking and sailing away to finding a spot in the lock or marina becomes child’s play! Even the effects of wind and current can be effectively countered.
Installation of a VETUS stern thruster is simple. The electric motor and other electrical components are fitted internally to the transom of the boat. The stern thruster tunnel and the propeller are installed externally on the transom.
Note:
The range of seven different stern thruster kits can make 14 different stern thruster models
These kits may also be used with ‘ignition protected’ thrusters and extended-runtime thrusters
Specifications:
For Thruster Models: BOW60, BOW75, BOW95, BOW95HYDR, BOWA0651, BOWA0761, BOWA0764, BOWB065, BOWB076, BOWB090, BOWB110, BOWB130

As the Fall months creep into our calendars, boat owners in cooler climates acknowledge, with sadness, that it’s time to put the boat away.
Outside Storage?
It’s a thought and an option but consider that you may be threatened by snow build up, tornadoes or hurricanes. The success of storing your boat outside depends on how well your boat is protected from the conditions outdoors.
Rinse/Flush
Rinsing the outside of your boat and trailer thoroughly with fresh water will remove excess salt. Pay particular attention to your trailer’s leaf springs, wheel hubs and brakes that are constantly submerged during launching and retrieval of your boat.
Flush your engine's cooling system with fresh water in line with your engine manufacturer’s salt removal recommendations. This will minimize corrosion and overheating issues come spring.
Drain your boat of all water – bilge, head, sink lines, water tanks, sea-cocks, and pipes. If you are in an area with extended periods of freezing, put antifreeze in the low parts if there is still some water present.
Salt
Watch out for salt. Buy a good salt remover to minimize corrosion.
Add fuel stabilizer to top off your fuel tanks. Here is one recommended by CLR Marine.
Diesel Formula Fuel Stabilizer & Performance Improver - 32oz *Case of 4*
STA-BIL Diesel Formula Fuel Stabilizer is a diesel additive that keeps fuel fresh for quick, easy starts and maximized for engine performance. Designed for use with all diesel engines, and all diesel fuels, Sta-Bil Fuel Stabilizer Diesel formula prevents sludge and sediment formation, cleans and lubricates fuel injectors to improve performance and helps remove water. It is safe to use and recommended for use at every fill up, with the 32 ounce bottle treating up to 320 gallons of fuel.
Batteries
Remove the batteries from your boat and store in your garage or basement.
Batteries should be connected to a battery charger that will give them a good charge and one that w automatically switches to a float/trickle charge to keep your batteries topped up. Match your charger to the type of battery you are charging. Using a charger manufactured for lead acid batteries to charge an AGM (absorbent glass mat) battery will cause damage to the battery.
If you choose to keep your batteries in the boat, connect a solar trickle charger. These chargers will keep your batteries topped off without the hassle of removing heavy batteries from your boat.
Cleaning
Clean the exterior with the proper fiber glass or wood cleaner needed for your boat. Bright work can be cleaned by removing the wood or cleaning it as it is - installed. Be careful to not get the wood cleaner onto the deck surfaces. The exterior should be dried with a chamois cloth. Vinyl seat cushions and backs should be cleaned with vinyl cleaner. Hard surfaces inside the vessel can be wiped with all purpose cleaners. End your cleaning with a coat of wax to the exterior and polish. Don’t forget the bottom paint.
Before you store, spend the time to give your boat a thorough cleaning. CLR Marine has many products by trusted brands such as Powerhouse, Davis Instruments, Jabsco, Shurhold, and Swobbit, to help winterize and clean. You will be grateful in the spring during launch time that your boat is already clean as the new boating season begins.
Cover Up
If you store outside in your yard, driveway, or a boat yard, a boat cover is a must to prevent damage from winter conditions. Leaving your boat in the water is not recommended. The boat is exposed to rough weather, and has a greater possibility of sinking if you aren’t monitoring it often.

Circle May 21, 2022, on your calendar. The date is almost ten days before Memorial Day, next year when most harbors open for the season. Start your prep work, tune-ups, sanding, and painting to get out on the water and a great boating season. In the meantime, during the cold winter months, cozy up to the fire and read your boating manuals, new safety regulations and weather information.
Fair winds and smooth sailing.

BOW PRO 651 Bow Thruster 65KGF - 12V
Our BOW PRO thrusters are fitted with proven induction technology. This system makes the use of carbon brushes obsolete. As a result, the bow thruster is very quiet and has indefinite* run-time! The (AC) induction motor is controlled by the VETUS MCV motor controller. This in-house-engineered motor controller can handle both 12V, 24V and AC motors, making the new bow thruster suitable for almost all boats!
The BOW PRO thruster is controlled by a proprietary CANBUS protocol. There are two different panels available for this thruster; one fully-proportional basic panel and one fully-proportional panel with lock-function. This allows the boat to be moored without the use of ropes. Letting passengers board your vessel have never been this easy! Evolution is to continue on a set of good properties, so there are similarities with its predecessors: remained are the very silent propeller blades and the streamlined tailpiece. Retrofitting a BOW PRO thruster, therefore, is a piece of cake as the new motor is interchangeable with the tailpiece and flange of our thruster range.
Features:
Range of Boat Size: 34ft - 36ft
Thrust in pounds force: 143 lbs
Motor horse power: 4
Tunnel- center line below the waterline: 185MM
Voltage: 12V
Precision proportional control
Endurance Rated Run-time - up to 10 minutes (dependant on model) at full power
Maintenance-free brushless motor
Sealed ingression protection construction - motor sealed for improved corrosion resistance in damp bilge environments
Built-in over-temp and low battery voltage protection
Suitable for high demanding applications (e.g. for use in rental & charter vessels)
This product may not be returned to the original point of purchase. Please contact the manufacturer directly with any issues or concerns.
