VETUS now offers greater system integration with Yamaha outboard engines.
VETUS has strengthened its reputation as a provider of complete onboard boat systems, with the announcement of their latest partnership, connecting its BOW PRO thruster range to Yamaha’s ground-breaking Helm Master EX control system.
Helm Master EX is a fully integrated boat control system that makes navigating and getting to your destination easier, and once you arrive, gives a whole new level of control to precisely manoeuvre your craft to exactly where and how you want it. The addition of a VETUS Bow Pro bow thruster to a Yamaha Helm Master EX equipped boat dramatically improves the slow speed authority and ease of berthing, increasing safety and vessel usability.
The combination of the VETUS Bow Pro thrusters and Yamaha’s Helm Master EX, means a single intuitive joystick easily controls engine power and puts the boat where you want it, moving it in any direction regardless of sidewinds, tides and other environmental influences. Enhancing the helmsman’s experience of boat control, useful for larger vessels, and opening boating to those who want to simplify the helm controls or where a heavy steering wheel may not be desirable or practical.
The proprietary VETUS motor controller also regulates the maintenance-free brushless induction motors, ensuring the thrusters are very efficient and quiet. Active heat control and a low power consumption give the bow thrusters a runtime only limited by the size of the battery pack installed – a unique feature for DC thrusters.
VETUS has a complete range of BOW PRO thrusters, including 24 models ranging from 30 Kgf to 420 Kgf.
