Side-Power SE 120/215 T Bow Thruster – 24V

Designed for modern yachts that demand serious bow propulsion without sacrificing space, the SE 120/215 T packs powerful thrust into a compact tunnel footprint. It delivers performance that rivals larger tunnels while staying smaller and easier to install—ideal for tight docking quarters, narrow channels, and marina gusts.

From Advance Trident, this bow thruster blends intelligent engineering with practical reliability at the marina edge. Experience confident control where it matters most: at the bow.

• Intelligent Power Control: a proprietary Side-Power controller continuously protects the drive in high-current DC conditions and from user faults. It intelligently manages drive directions, monitors solenoid health to prevent lock-in, and can automatically stop the unit if a fault is detected—keeping you safer and reducing electrical risk.
• Q-prop 5-Blade Propeller: the next generation of propellers combines a five-blade design with careful skew to maximize efficiency and minimize noise. Expect up to ~5% more thrust in certain configurations without compromising smooth operation.
• Low-Noise, High-Efficiency Performance: targeted sound reduction reaches up to 75% in controlled tests; real-world installations typically see meaningful noise reductions (roughly 20–40%), enabling quiet, confident maneuvering around crew and guests.
• Sealed Gear Leg with Lifetime Lubrication: a polished ceramic-carbon mechanical seal protects the gear train from water intrusion, while the pre-filled oil keeps lubrication lasting longer with minimal maintenance.
• Twin Propeller System: for mid-range models, twin propellers deliver robust thrust within a compact tunnel diameter, delivering stronger grip in gusty conditions and tighter control during docking maneuvers.
• Galvanic Separation: electrical isolation of critical systems reduces corrosion risk and protects your boat’s electrical integrity in varied marina water conditions.
• Compact Tunnel Design: high power concentrated into a smaller tunnel footprint means you don’t have to sacrifice space or installation practicality on modern yachts.

Real‑world benefits you’ll feel on the water: precise, predictable bow control helps prevent scrapes and dents during close-quarters docking, while strong thrust and quick response enable confident pivots without loading other thrusters or crew weight. In gusty conditions or tidal flows, hold position with less effort and spend more time enjoying the voyage.

Key use cases

• Docking in tight marina slips where space is at a premium and precision matters
• Navigating gusty crosswinds and tidal flows without relying on external momentum or crew weight
• Maintaining position in crowded harbors, then smoothly pivoting to depart with confidence
• Low-maintenance operation thanks to lifetime lubrication and a sealed gear leg, giving you more time aboard

Who this is for

Ideal for modern yachts and owners who want reliable bow propulsion in a compact footprint. If you retrofit a bow thruster or upgrade an existing system and value quiet, efficient performance with ease of installation, the SE 120/215 T is designed for you.
