Oup propulsion units blow the others out of the water.

Thrustmaster steerable outboard propulsion units deliver infin- ite maneuverability and quiet, hydraulic effiriency.

As if thaf s not enough,

Thrustmasters are tough. In terms of power, maintainability and cost-effiaency, mechanical drives can't even come dose.
