Max Power 'VIP 150 Electric'
The largest electric thruster in the Max Power range, the VIP 150 electric is a vertically retracting DC thruster.
Available in two thrust ratings: 12V & 24V, the VIP 150 Electric is particularly well suited to boats from 45’ to 60’.
High performance & excellent reliability have made this unit an industry standard for nearly 10 years.
Recently upgraded the VIP 150 Electric offers a new control system and all the safety features common to Max Power bow and stern thrusters.
Max Power’s vertically retracting VIP thruster series uses a unique and patented thrust plate design.
A square piston mounted to the top of the turbine inside the thruster’s box transfers the lateral thrust load directly to the hull at its strongest point.
This has allowed Max Power engineers to build in a “weak link” to help maintain hull integrity in case of accidents such as fowling ground lines or anchor chains.
The electronic control box delivered with VIP thrusters protects against accidental misuse and incorporates features such as automatic retraction, audible alarms and position indicators.
