Max Power are world renowned manufacturers at the forefront of innovative technology in the production of robust, dependable bow thrusters for sailing yachts and motor boats.
The CT45 has similar proportions to the CT35 with the benefits of an increased thrust capacity rating delivered via twin propellers (Duo)
Max Power advise that the CT45 is generally suitable for motor boats and sailboats up to 10.3 metres length overall, see chart below with more information relating to displacement and windage.
| Motor | Heavy Displacement, High Windage | Medium Displacement and Windage | Light Displacement and Windage |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sail | Cruising | Fast Cruising | Super Fast Cruising |
| LOA | 6.0-8.5 metres | 6.8-9.5 metres | 7.3-10.3 metres |

Max Power Advisory
* Thrusters are designed to run at 10.75V on 12V units and 22V on 24V units. Higher voltages will result in higher thrust ratings, higher power consumption, and a reduced duty cycle.
* Performance data is given for a thruster installed at an immersion depth of one tunnel’s diameter, in a tunnel no longer than twice the tunnel’s diameter, and this is within a variation of + / - 6%. Longer tunnels will result in lower thrust ratings and higher power consumption.
- Boat Size - up to 10.3 metres
