Sideshift ST240-DUAL Outboard / Sterndrive Mounted Stern Thruster Kit 24V - White

Until now larger outboard and sterndrive-powered boats didn't have much help at the dock in tough conditions. For many, the added complications of docking that bigger boat meant less time on the water, or even selling it!

Sideshift's new ST240-Dual Stern Thruster takes the stress out of docking large boats up to 50' in length. The powerful, dual-prop 24V system provides responsive control in almost any situation.

The ST240-Dual Stern Thruster system from Sideshift is perfect for most boats up to 50' in length; the units attach to the cavitation plate of any outboard motor or sterndrive, eliminating the installation issues common to most outboard or sterndrive powered boats. The unique mounting position creates zero drag as the thrusters ride above water when the boat is on plane, and the units can be easily installed in-water in only a few hours.

The powerful, water-cooled 24V motors and heavy-duty 8" aluminum propellers provide instant lateral thrust for stress-free docking in any situation. Saltwater proven, the thrusters are anode protected and finished in acrylic enamel paint over epoxy primer to prevent corrosion.

And for boats with existing bow thrusters, you can add our dual wireless joystick option for easy single-handed operation of both thrusters, providing true 360 degree control in any docking situation.

Shipped as a complete kit including:

  • Thrusters
  • Motor controller
  • Wireless joystick(Dual joystick when purchasing bow and stern thruster kits together)
  • Wiring harness and mounting hardware
  • Outboard/Sterndrive mounting plates
  • Fuse with digital voltage indicator
  • Battery switch
  • Wireless remote key fob
