Overview
The well-mounted azimuth thruster propels floating marine applications such as inland waterway vessels, sea-going vessels, yachts, barges and jack-up platforms.
It delivers thrust in any direction through 360° to support manoeuvring, navigation and position keeping. It can serve as main propulsion or as part of a dynamic positioning (DP) system.
