    Bob,

    That was a pretty darned ugly contraption. That thruster was so far fetched that
    I checked the web page date to see if it was an April Fool's page!

    The first good storm a boat with that was run through would probably rip it
    right off the bow. Of course, just anchor out one night and have the rode take a
    wrap on it - and it's hasta la viesta baby! There is a reason that bow thrusters
    are always mounted in tunnels.

    Kevin
