Stern Thruster on a Wakeboard Wakesurf Boat : Is It Really That Good?
Vložit

- To be completely honest, when my Nautique first arrived with a Stern Thruster on my boat, I thought I wouldn't use it. I've been driving boats for over 30 years and assumed it was a crutch for people who didn't know how to drive boats. I couldn't have been more wrong! The stern thruster allows you to handle your boat in a totally new way and it's something I use every day I take my boat out.
To be completely honest, when someone's boat doesn't have it, I have to be so much more aware of what's happening because the thruster allows me to get in and out of situations so much easier!
If you're a doubter or a hater, you probably haven't tried it.

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
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.
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

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.
I wish we had A thirsted and how do u make that tawer stay down on 2021 gs22
Hi can you please put up a how to land on the swim board from the whip video please
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!
I have a s23.....definitely would like to add!
Changes the boat so much!
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!
Lil guy makes such a big difference!
Hi Shaun!
Morning Jerr!
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
We need to spend a few minutes practicing that next time I'm there.
Sounds good. 👍
That’s a dramatic difference in turning radius. What year did this feature first debut for Nautique?
It's pretty crazy how much it does. Pretty sure it was 2018
I have it on my Paragon, YES it is WELL WORTH IT!
Foe sho and nice to hear you've gotta Paragon Bird
So cool what model g23?

Can you add steer assist to a boat without it?
I've seen some aftermarket thrusters out there, so the answer is yes but not sure if on all boats.
Can you us it on jet 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! ✌️
😂
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!
Well put OR! Def changes the boat's abilities
Can this be added to a newer wakesetter? That prob is a swear word on the channel. 😎
Yes Malibu has this and the button to control it is on the throttle which is also nice cause u don’t need to move your hand
Not a bad question MR. Pretty sure that you can w some of the aftermarket ones I've seen
Pavati has a bow and stern thrusters.
Yo
Fast fingers K to the H!
First!
Super close Andrew!
Pavati has both bow and stern thrusters for a few years now.
Talk about superfluous when the world is being depopulated with the "medicine"
Lol, wait what?
We are drawing the line on stern thrusters?
🤣🤣🤣
