Designed for boats between 40ft-100ft in length, the eVision thrusters require up to 30% less amperage draw than previous models, and are claimed to be up to 50% lighter and 40% more compact than comparable units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Massachusetts, US-based marine equipment manufacturer and importer IMTRA displayed the eVision product at the recent Miami International Boat Show, where it made its North American debut.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cSleipner eVision is the result of years of dedicated development and hard work,\u201d said IMTRA\u2019s aftermarket product manager of DC thrusters, Steve Howd. \u201cWith its extreme efficiency and low amp draw, eVision is the ideal thruster solution for DC environments and a perfect fit for the growing interest in boat electrification.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sleipner\u2019s eVision models come with ignition protection for enhanced safety, and are compatible with Sleipner\u2019s proven S-Link Control system. Joystick integration is also possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company notes that eVision product has now begun shipping to OEM customers, with shipping to aftermarket refitters to commence in late March.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>eVision DC electric thrusters launched as lighter, more compact option for boats from 40ft-100ft<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":5924,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[33],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5923","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-latest-news","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5923","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5923"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5923\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5926,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5923\/revisions\/5926"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5924"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5923"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5923"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boatshowchina.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5923"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
