Overview
The ST230OB-D Stern Thruster system from Sideshift is perfect for most boats up to 40′ in length; the units attach to the cavitation plate of any multi-outboard motor configuration, eliminating the installation issues common to most outboard powered boats. The unique mounting position creates zero drag as the thrusters ride above water when the boat is on plane, and the units can be easily installed in-water in only a few hours.
The powerful, water-cooled 12V motors and heavy-duty 8″ aluminum propellers provide instant lateral thrust for stress-free docking in any situation. Saltwater proven, the thrusters are anode protected and finished in acrylic enamel paint over epoxy primer to prevent corrosion.
And for boats with existing bow thrusters, you can add our dual wireless joystick option for easy single-handed operation of both thrusters, providing true 360 degree control in any docking situation.
