Wondering if anyone has bow thrusters installed on their 43 or 46? Is the compartment under the V-berth deep enough into the water to make the thrusters effective?

John with the bravo shop, waconda on here installed one on his 46 and on another black thunder, The Monopoly 46 has one from the factory and it works good.

Do you know if they installed the motor under the V-berth?

Here's the thread on the installs

Thanks for the info.

I have a 46 with bow thruster. The installer built a small compartment in front of the vberth. The thruster works great

Hello Steve and congratulations...how are you and your crew???...who did your install and has it affected your performance???...I'd like to come and take a look someday in the near future......

Anytime Jim. The thruster was on it when I bought it. It has been installed by Florida Bow Thruster. They travel to the installs. As I understand it, if you can catch them when they are in your area, you save a lot of cash

That's great Steve and I will take you up on that... I know you are pretty busy w/your yacht club, but, do you have any specific trips or runs planned this year???

The boat club I belonged to closed up. We have a weekend trip planned for PIB mid august. Otherwise just local stuff
