Thought I heard it was 10K- it has a diverter on the exhaust so that it does not cavatate the thruster. You guys would not believe how bad some of the outboard drivers are down here,but then again they have trouble driving on land here too. These guys were out the other day looking for something/someone but had no trouble turning around in our crowded canal ![]() |

I have watched some rookie mega-wake boat owners attempt to maneuver in tight quarters...quality entertainment.
It’s no wonder that bow/stern thrusters are now all the rage... JQ |

Probably about a $20,000 option. So there is that, or you could just learn to drive an inboard. Just sayin'

I think I would have spent the $400 on a new carb instead.

This guy might be on to something. Seeing as how the new Behemoth Nauti's are coming out with Bow thrusters as an option ...just hinge mount one to your platform and your good to go.

Sadly, I have to admit, more than once I’ve tooled around Silver Glenn with a Minn Kota on a ‘75 Ski Nautique. Meh, a boy’s gotta do what a boy’s gotta do.

Saw this posted by The Qualified Captain on Instagram and thought it was too good not to share. The description is amazing too. Enjoy.
