Jet Thruster
我们是谁？
Jet Thruster makes use of a high power electrical Turbine style Centrifugal water pump. You can use the system as Bow Thruster, Stern Thruster, or in combination to make the full "docking system" Jet Thruster, a unique product in the industry.
The system works like any other boat thruster: Push the joystick or button to port or starboard, and the boat will move in that direction.
All parts of the system are made from high quality Stainless Steel 316 or High grade Composite materials, and are certified to meet industrial quality standards.
The Jet Thruster pump draws water thru a 3" or 4" intake on the bottom of the boat, fitted with an isolation ball valve. The powerful pump generates a large water flow, directed thru flexible reinforced rubber hoses by proprietary electro-motive valves. The system works on the principal of low pressure and high flow rate.
The water flow is directed to nozzles which are located Forward and Aft in the boat, just below the water line. From this nozzle the water jet will exit the nozzle, and push the boat into the direction of choice. The size of the outlet nozzles allow for placement at the extreme ends of the bow and stern, maximising efficiency.
Without the need for specialized fiberglassing, any skilled or DIY technician can install the Jet Thruster in virtually any pleasure yacht on the market.
With four models of Jet Thruster, our systems are normally installed to 25-60Ft yachts, but can be scaled to virtually any size vessel.

Jet Thruster Advantages
By using a 2-way pump outlet, you can have a bow and stern Thruster with a single Jet Thruster pump unit
The pump unit can be placed everywhere, as long as it is below the waterline (you need min. 25cm draft for the pump position)
High Quality Bronze impeller, no cavitation, no more stuck objects in a tunnel or propellor, and no more loud noises common for traditional thrusters.
Isolation Ball Valves allow complete maintenance of system while in the water
No more Epoxy or fiberglas work needed, just use a common PU-Sealant such as Sikaflex 291i to glue thru hull fittings together
Small 64mm Composite thru hull nozzle’s which can be placed maximum aft or forward
Flexible hose, gives you many installation possibilities
All thru-hull fittings are ISO 9093 and ABYC Certified!
A perfect solution for, shallow draft boats, catamarans, and wooden yachts. By far more easy to install compared to a conventional tunnel or retractable thruster
No vulnerable moving parts, and less maintenance than any other thruster system on the market
