Found parts for obsolete bow thruster!

Postby kurfew61 » January 26th, 2020, 4:24 pm

Hey Guys, I stripped out the gears on my QL BP1200 bow thruster. Tried to order new parts but they are obsolete and no longer available. After a lot of searching I found a new company called thrusterparts.com that is selling gears for Volvo Penta QL BP series thrusters. I ordered a set, had them installed and they work perfectly!
