    What do you mean by, “I turn it off when docking.” I would assume that would be the place I would use at the most. Is it because you’re so used to nosing in on the driver side then reversing into the dock? The old-school technique of parallel parking an inboard boat.

    Coming from a stern drive, I had a difficult time backing up the inboard. Having this would make my life so much easier. Definitely gonna get this on my next boat

    Was considering it on my new boat, but couldnt justify the extra cost - yes I know its something that you could look at and say "its only another x $" or "only x % of the total", but in this case it's an amount equivalent to several surf boards or other fun things. Definitely cool though! I'll just need to rely on prop steer!

    Pavati has had both bow and stern thrusters for a few years.

    We have a steer assist on our G and when we baught it we didn't realy think it was that necessary but I'll say it makes navigating through a tight marina very nice

    Picked up a 2020 25lsv this winter and it has a stern thruster. I’ll admit I never thought about using it during slow speed forward turns. Could actually be quite useful.

    That’s a game changer for the small direct drive and V drive boats, They have had those for big ships for years.. nice to see the technology scaled down!

    I want this so bad. I’m horrible at docking a wake board boat. Slightly better than I used to be but still. This would be amazing

      Have been asked about this a lot but it's something that I can't encourage or show anyone how to do. I've seen people try it and smack the boat really hard. Things could go even worse and get pretty hurt. Thanks for asking Lenny, sorry don't have a better answer but... thanks for watching!

    That’s a dramatic difference in turning radius. What year did this feature first debut for Nautique?

    25 lsv here with thruster. Is it necessary? No. Is it really useful on a boat this big? Yes. Would I recommend you get one on the bigger boats? Yes!

    Can you add steer assist to a boat without it?

    • @Shaun.Murray
      @Shaun.Murray  2 года назад +1

      I've seen some aftermarket thrusters out there, so the answer is yes but not sure if on all boats.

      Good question. Not sure Liam. There are some aftermarket thrusters you could research and ask those companies but I can't give you an educated answer on that. Thanks for watching! Enjoy your ride! ✌️
