A significant advantage of our retractable range lies in the utilization of components from the Veth standard azimuth thruster lineup. This feature reduces the vessel’s resistance during transit to or from the operation area. Additionally, the thruster’s retraction capability facilitates navigation in shallow waters. By rotating the underwater portion through 360°, the full propulsive power can be harnessed for maneuvering and dynamic positioning (DP) of the vessel.

The Veth Swing Out utilizes components from the Veth standard azimuth thruster range. It can be hydraulically lowered out of the vessel’s hull and steered limitlessly through 360 degrees once fully unfolded. Particularly advantageous for mega yachts, the retractability of the Veth Swing Out offers significant benefits for large vessels. It enhances vessel maneuverability, allowing more precise steering during port entry and departure. Retracting the auxiliary propulsion units when no longer needed, especially during open-sea cruising, contributes to improved speed, reduced fuel consumption, and lower CO2 emissions.
