Mark,

U’ll also need a very good aluminum welder for the bow thruster make sure he/you uses the right wire. They have a bolt on stern thrusters which require no welding.

 You'll have bad times, but they'll just wake you up to the good times you weren't paying attention to

Some people try to turn back their odometers.Not me, I want people to know "why" I look this way.I've traveled a long way and some of the roads weren't paved.

Mark,

I believe I saw them at one of the local boat show last yr they use to have them pictured in the 2007 W/M catalog they don’t show them in this yr catalog U may want to call W/M to see if they still carry them or google thruster or better yet may want to take a look at DiverDennis neat set I’m sure he’d be glad to inform U on the how why’s & don’t & shot some pix great idea D/DApplause

Bow thruster was an option from the factory. I have a 41 and have never felt the need for a bow thruster. With 21 inch diameter props and 2.57:1 transmissions, the 41's are very maneuverable. I also have the best looking 1988 41 in the midwest located on Lake Cumberland, and it is for sale for 109K. You can see it at www.marinetteforsale.com.
