Veth Motoren BV has built up a great deal of experience with auxiliary drive systems in the field of offshore shipping.
The Veth-Z-Drives, in this case, are completely retractable within the ship. By means of an ingenious arch-claw clutch system, the engine can be completely detached from the driving unit by remote control.
These types of installation are usually linked to a Dynamic Positioning system and work under the most difficult circumstances.

It functions inside of the ship in its highest position, and underneath the vessel in its lowest position. In the latter case it can rotate a full 360 degrees and can be used to provide (emergency) propulsion.

Launched in 2004, the Compact Retract™ is designed for yachts from 30-52'. This lightweight electric retractable thruster, the first of its kind, has been a major success with shipyards from the start. Whilst other electric retractable thrusters on the market may appear to be the same, technically they are very different.
The Max Power Compact Retract™ is the lowest profile electric retractable thruster available, allowing installation in even the most confined spaces. It also boasts the smallest hull opening on the market thanks to its unique downward movement. Furthermore, unlike some competing models, the Compact Retract™ is bolted onto a flange and not directly laminated into the hull. This means that the whole unit can be removed quickly and easily.
Other advantages also include: lightweight composite construction, rapid deployment, no exposed moving parts in the yacht, splash resistant in the yacht (thanks to its GRP casing), and intelligent position detection.
If considering an electric retractable thruster for your yacht, the Max Power Compact Retract™ is the only choice for complete peace of mind.

This folding retractable thruster is designed to be compact, in order to fit under bunks and floorboards on yachts 50-200'.
The retractable movement allows it to be installed far forward in the box of the boat while reaching ideal emersion depth.
Benefitting from the patented folding arm it has a small hull opening ensuring that it never breaches the hull of the yacht. Designed for maximum buoyancy, the unit can be installed on either sailing yachts or fast motor yachts.

In sailing vessels where inadequate immersion is possible for traditional tunnel thrusters, retractable thrusters can offer a solution. These have been developed over 20 years and the range now extends up to 90 kW.
These thrusters are also available as a version where the unit can be rotated 90o for use as emergency propulsion.

A propeller transforms engine power into thrust, which in turn, overcomes the boat’s resistance and move it in the required direction, fully in accordance with the laws of nature. But now, when we introduce a complete range of the patented swing bow and stern thruster designed and developed in Sweden – the Swing Thruster – it’s time to think again. With the RMC Swing Thruster, you get 30-50% greater efficiency, low sound level and minimal cavitation. And last but not least, it does not require a tunnel through the hull, which reduces boat speed.
