Anyone have any experience?

We had some rather tricky situations in the wind at the 6mm as well at the big boats that plow into the Tap-n-Grill. They did good work as part of a group install at PBC. From memory Justice at told me they come up from Merrit Island a couple times a year for installs.

About $10k for bow and stern thrusters.

$4600 for bow only , I don`t see a reason for stern unless you can`t dock at all lol

I wonder how well the jet ones would work on a heavy cruiser, cool idea.
