The Veth-Jet bow thruster installation
The Veth-Jet bow thrusters have given Veth Motoren, the inventor of this system, an international reputation. Worldwide more than 1000 units are working now.

The advantages of the Veth-Jet
There are many reasons why to choose for a Veth-Jet bow thruster installation. The main reasons are o.a.:

- Maximum thrust at minimum draught
- 360° thrust
- No protruding parts under the vessel
- High thrust about 11 kg/kW
- It is possible to manoeuvre the vessel at maximum power
- Solid construction, so long lifetime
- The 3 and 4 tunnel system can also be used as auxiliary propulsion and/or brake
- Fast steering time in about 6 to 7 seconds from PS to SB
- The propeller only turns in one direction, so reverse clutch is not necessary

The Veth-Jet panels are developped by our own electronics department and fabricated at our own premises. The electronics department uses all the potential of today's technology. The Veth electronics make driving and control simple, well-arranged and reliable
