Backed by over 30 years of experience in the marine industry, New England Bow Thruster launched as the premier thruster installation specialists. NEBT has developed proprietary tools and procedures to make each and every installation first in quality and performance. The quality of our fiberglass work and finishing is unparalleled. The custom made laser based tools ensure the thruster is installed in the optimum position, not "about" where it should be, but "exactly" where it should be - every time. Remember, a thruster is only as good as the installation and our approach results in more quiet, convenient and reliable pounds of thrust per dollar than can be achieved elsewhere.

Most installations are completed in 2-3 days so down time of the vessel is kept to a minimum. Aside from how fun it is to have a thruster, this is inherently another reason to own a thruster. Your time on the water is precious so enjoying as much of it as you can lands high on the list.

Dear Bill,

Thanks for the invoice.  Our desire is to take all the spares.  By the way the bow thrusters have already proved extremely useful and may have saved a collision.

Regards,

To the folks at NEBT

" I have a background as a certified automotive and electronic technician.  I thoroughly research all the products and installers I use.  After a thorough investigation into bow thrusters, there are  two premier installers.  One  is by far the largest installer in the country, but after my experience with New England Bow Thruster, I am sure that you guys are the best.  And for any customer in the Northeast, you a have a “local” premier installer, for that piece of mind.  The Lewmar thrusters are the most reliable units on the market, and have many advanced features.  The wireless remote is included, whereas from other companies, was not available or an extra option for additional cost.  This was my first boat ownership and has been a nightmare working with my dealer.  Not only did NEBT do a fantastic job with the bow thruster as can be seen in the pictures, I found out they are expert marine specialists in boat repair and electrical systems.  They fixed problems the  factory dealer  could not repair and actually redesigned and repaired flaws from the factory.  I have found that it is very rare to find a honest company (with fair prices) which does exceptional quality work in the marine industry.  I give New England Bow Thruster my highest recommendation, without reservation."

"Bill

It would have been wrong for Arthur and Larry to go any further without a bow thruster. And now that I know you and NEBT.... its a comfort to know the job will be done by the right people using the right equipment."

Dear New England Bow Thruster,
 
Just a short note to thank you for your efforts in installing my bow thruster
under a compressed time frame. I knew you would and could. I am in the aircraft
mechanical service business  and  appreciate YOUR dedication and commitment
to the task afforded you. I have had other techs on my boat and as I mentioned to
you they were never invited back. I appreciated the fact that you protected the interior
and left the boat as clean as you found it, especially while working in rain conditions.
 
While speaking with Mark Suda, the service manager for Norwest Marine, he asked
about your work. I mentioned that I interviewed other installers and selected you.
I not only said that I would have you work on my boat any time but added, I would
highly recommend you to others. He sat back shocked, as he knows how I keep my
equipment and that I  have a high expectation thresh hold that most mechanics do not possess
these days.
 
Again Thank You for a great job and Best Regards; one professional to an other.

"I am so excited to use my bow thruster!!  You guys installed it in a very timely manner and the work was extremely neat and precise.  I found your tech, Bill, to be helpful right from the very first conversation.  He kept his word about when he was going to install the thruster and everything was carried out exactly as planned.  This is not the norm in the marine industry!  I can highly recommend New England Bow Thruster to all boaters considering installing a bow thruster!"
