Stern Thruster Cowls/ Grids
EN
Installing a stern thruster cowl for stern thrusters that will allow installations in boats with shallow drafts or due to other obstructions on the stern. These
can include obstacles such as trim tabs, jets or surface drive propeller systems where shallow installation of a stern thruster is the only option.
Cowls:
Designed to aid in water redirection and reduce air entering the tunnel in shallow installations.
Grides:
Designed to protect the thruster from objects while in use.

Shallow installation
Cowl water flow redirection
An angled edge further
preventing air attraction into
the tunnel
Composite material with smooth
inner walls for optimal water flow
and strength
A standard Sidepower stern
thruster tunnel with add-on cowls
for shallow installation
cowls to change the
water flow direction to
avoid obstructions on the
stern
cowls help prevent air
from the water surface
entering the tunnel in
shallow installations
Radiused corners prevent
turbulence

Positioning of the SX with Hydrodynamical Cover
EN
Aim to install the thruster as far forward/ Aft as possible
Due to the leverage eff ect around the boats’ pivot point. The relative distance diff erence from the boat pivots’ point to the thruster will determine the
amount of real thrust for the boats, rotation.
