The Sleipner Hydropod Low Drag Cover SM150536 is designed for SX thrusters to deliver smooth, in-flow performance with minimal resistance. Mounted under the hull, it reduces drag for low- and mid-speed vessels, making it ideal for sailboats and installations where tunnels aren't practical. Efficient, clean, and nearly drag-free at cruising speeds.

Description
By adding the Hydropod low drag cover, the new SX models can be mounted under the hull in the water flow for low- and mid-speed vessels. The optimal design adds minimal drag and will, in most installations, not be noticeable. For a typical sail boat cruising at 7.5 knots, the added drag is less than 5kg. The in-flow configuration is perfect for boats where it is difficult to fit a tunnel thruster or for example as stern thruster for cruising sailboats.
