Vetus Takes a Step Ahead

Backed by its previous experiences with electric marine propulsion, Vetus introduces two new, innovative “e-mobility” products.

Installing a Bow Thruster

Bow thrusters are not just for bigger boats—today, there’s no reason not to have one on all but the smallest of vessels.

Installing a Vetus-Maxwell Thruster

With more new boaters on the water than ever before, many are looking to upgrade their craft with a bow thruster. We shadow the installation of a Vetus-Maxwell thruster to see how painless this project can be.

Vetus: Bow Pro Thruster

IThe BOW PRO Thruster: A combination of the renowned electric bow thruster series and the quiet RimDrive.

The Right Tool

Ever hear the old saw—even small jobs need to be done right? While the apothegm may not always apply to the lubberly side of life,

Uh-Oh, Sticky Water Hose

Oddly enough, not all onboard drinking-water issues—like poor taste, bad smell, or weird color—arise from the existence of algae and other contaminants in your onboard

An Amazing Development

Word around the docks these days is that, still, there’s no way to easily bond King Starboard—a poly product popular with today’s boat builders and restorers—either to itself or to other surfaces, whether wood, metal, fiberglass, or whatever.

Fold-Over Fix

Large 10- to 12-gauge butt connectors? Much finer wire? Try this trick and keep right on chuggin’.

Roll On, Roll Off

Forget to wear a long-sleeved shirt when grinding fiberglass? Nix that dust with a lint roller.
