Swift Trawler 44 Stern Thruster Install and Winter Servicing

Safer short-handed berthing

Having owned the Swift Trawler 44 for around a year, the owner wanted to upgrade the manoeuvring systems to assist with short-handed berthing. 

GTE Ltd. installed a new stern thruster (including stern tube), dual remote controls (helm and flybridge) as well as a wireless remote system allowing the owner to control the thrusters from the pontoon. 

In addition, the team upgraded the battery monitor, serviced the main engines, burnished and antifouled the props, replaced all anodes, antifouled the hull and waxed the topsides.
