| Bow and stern thrusters are often mounted with a tunnel, i.e. a cavity made of stainless steel, aluminum or other material, to avoid cavitation. The smaller its diameter, the less resistance it offers to navigation. Furthermore, a smaller diameter allows for mounting near the bow, thus increasing the boat’s rudder torque. |

| For additional safety, the bow thruster tunnel openings are engineered with protective grate covers to prevent debris from entering them. |
