CRUISER WITH UPPER HELM  

A cruiser with an upper helm can often be hard to maneuver and dock. This is because of the upper helm and planning hull. The wind will tend to push the bow of this type of boat. To solve this problem we recommend installing a SIDESHIFT bow thruster. If current is a factor there will be an opposite effect and a stern thruster will be needed. For the ultimate docking solution, install the SIDESHIFT bow and stern thruster combo package.
