  360° rotating Azimuth thrusters are used when enhanced maneuverability is required in applications such as dynamic positioning, ship escort, and ship docking services.
  
  Portable Dynamic Positioning
  Quick dock-side conversion of any vessel to DP-0 thru DP-3 per any of the major classification societies.
  
  Outboard Propulsion Units
  Outboard propulsion units are self-contained thruster packages for main propulsion and positioning of barges, platforms and river craft.
  
  Retractable Thrusters
  Thrustmaster retractable thrusters are thru-hull azimuthing thrusters using fixed pitch propellers at variable speed.
  
  Water Jets
  Axial flow water jets from 100kW to 6,400 kW available in 15 model sizes to accommodate vessels from 6m to +60m with stainless steel jets supported by electronic controls.
  
  Tunnel Thrusters
  Tunnel thrusters for docking, slow speed maneuvering, emergency steering, and station keeping at zero or slow forward speeds.
  
  Portable River Ferry
  Turn-key modular package comprised of interlocking barge sections with ramps on both ends, self-contained hydraulic outboard propulsion units, a raised pilot house, and all necessary accessories.
  
  Hybrid Propulsion Systems
  Turn-key patented and proven hybrid propulsion packages offering a seamless integration with the vessel. Designs tailed to the vessel size, speed, transit route, and operational profile.
  
  T-Pod Electric Podded Thrusters
  Thrustmaster T-Pods are configured with a permanent magnet motor directly driving the propeller shaft in a pod housing.
