Description
Presentation
Mounted on the transom, the BlueSpin 8 kW is a compact, premium electric propulsion solution designed to deliver silent, smooth and intelligent navigation, in hybrid or fully electric configurations.
Discreet and lightweight, it becomes almost invisible once retracted while providing precise low-speed control enhanced by BlueNav Smart Navigation software.
Designed for seamless integration, the BlueSpin 8 kW is fully compatible with standard NMEA 2000 electrical architectures, making it ideal for both new builds and retrofit applications.
Design & Installation
The BlueSpin 8 kW mounts directly on the transom and requires no structural modification to the hull.
It shares the same compact dimensions as the BlueSpin 11 kW, allowing easy integration on a wide variety of hulls, from dayboats to light displacement cruisers.
In hybrid configurations, the unit automatically retracts when operating under thermal propulsion and deploys instantly when electric mode is engaged, ensuring seamless transitions and preserving hydrodynamic performance.
Key Features
Retractable turbine developed by BlueNav Patented Dynamic Anti-Cavitation Thrust Control for smooth, controlled thrust Transom-mounted solution with minimal visual impact when retracted Compact footprint (same dimensions as BlueSpin 11 kW) Charging via standard 230 V shore power Reduced maintenance requirements 3D joystick and HMI with intelligent energy management Simple installation suitable for new builds and refits
Smart Navigation Integration
The BlueSpin 8 kW is fully integrated into the BlueNav Smart Navigation ecosystem, transforming electric propulsion into a high-precision assisted navigation system.
Positioning functions Virtual Anchor Dynamic Positioning System (DPS) Drift Lock Maneuvering assistance Docking 360 Lateral Docking Autopilot functions Heading Hold Course Hold Waypoint Tracking Speed Control
These software-driven functions deliver enhanced control, safety and comfort, particularly during harbor maneuvers and low-speed navigation.
Operational Advantages
The BlueSpin 8 kW provides 360 maneuverability, enabling silent departures and arrivals, stress-free docking and precise control in confined or environmentally sensitive areas.
A single BlueSpin 8 kW, even when off-centered, can effectively propel and maneuver vessels up to 4 tons.
In a twin outboard configuration, the system can deliver electric propulsion and assisted maneuvering for vessels up to 8 tons.
In hybrid applications, the BlueSpin 8 kW complements internal combustion engines by providing silent electric operation, reduced emissions and greatly improved low-speed handling.
