Stern Thrusters
Stern thrusters are not essential on boats under 60 ft. They let you make a nice show by parking sideways. They are redundant if you have a Z-drive. They should be placed well aft, for example, under the swim platform but keep in mind safety considerations.
David Myers has developed an innovative stern thruster mounted on the rudder. This Variable Angle Stern Thruster (VAST) can double as a get-home drive.<ref>QUEST V A VAST-ly Different Boat, Robert M. Lane, Passage-MakerPassageMaker, April 2006</ref>
