Thrusters and steering — where this comes from
-
Bow thruster not fitted
Our earlier figure of none has no source. The 1979 and 1983 brochures list standard equipment for the 41/410 Commander (no thruster), but options were in a separate price schedule, so absence isn't proof.
-
Stern thruster not fitted
Our earlier figure of none has no source, and no option list was found.
-
Steering unknown
The 1979 and 1983 standard-equipment lists for this model do not mention steering; no review or owners' source found.
Thrusters and steering are often replaced — check the units on your boat before ordering parts.
Flush-deck double-cabin motor yacht with a 15-year run. Bridge restyled and enlarged in 1980; queen berth standard from 1981. Only 350 gal fuel limits range to roughly 200 nm on gas engines.
