Looks nice...wonder what it costs.  

The DIY in me..says buy 2 24v water pumps for each side of the bow and wire them to a joystick at the helm.  My 270 has storage departments on each side that a pump would fit right into LOL.

It's not a far fetched idea.

Would be pretty easy to do, can install a dedicated battery for them if you want also.

It looks like this system is so much easier to install than the normal bow thruster. Can easily be installed by a "DIY" in a few hours.

Sorry for all of the posts guys, I think this system is amazing. Wish it made sense to put in my 242, LoL!

I like the idea behind it. It seems to be easier to install than a prop driven thruster.
