    No bow thruster needed.
    They were cool when they first came out. Can do the same thing with twin outboards now too.

    Best fishing boat I ever worked on was a 53' Gwaltney with a single 1271 called the Calcutta.

    Arch catches his share with a single screw ... And ain't so bad getting her into the slip.

    Waste Knot was a BC? Fish - you used to work on a BC boat didn't you? Wasn't that the Skee Bo ?

    How does that fix it? You can do it with twins. Our 312 does it no problem with the Optimus 360 steering. Just point the joystick where you want to go.

    Single screw has reduced maneuverability therefore needs multiple rudders specifically for backing.
