Introducing eVision

When combining our new, state-of-the-art electric motor with the proven Sleipner gear leg design and Q-Prop™ skew propeller, you get a thruster that delivers performance and runtime, never seen before in a DC thruster. The result is the new E-Series thrusters.

Manage your boat with one single control

Now there are options to command both inboard/outboard motors and thrusters together with one control. 

Sleipner has partnered with leading manufacturers such as Volvo, Mercury, MAN, MTU, ZF Marine, Xenta, Cummins Marine, Glendinning, Dockmate, and Yacht Controller to integrate Sleipner thrusters with their joystick technology.

An integrated docking system can significantly improve safety and decrease number of accidents, especially for less experienced boat owners. Moving a boat sideways with one or multiple thrusters connected to inboards/outboards is much easier, and the ability to maneuver to the centimeter can make a huge difference.

A single intuitive joystick provides you with complete control of the boat so you can enjoy your time on the water.
