Swing retracting thrusters are ideal for higher performance sailing yachts, and fast planing or semi-displacement hulls. With the thruster in a raised position it offers a completely fair hull section causing minimum drag. Lewmar has now introduced a completely new and simple design, which is a logical step forward from the current successful range.
This design is in keeping with Lewmar's environmental concerns and has no hydraulic motors or hoses in the water. Unlike many manufacturers, all of this componentry is housed inside the hull, preventing pollution in the event of an oil leak.
