Are you comfortable cutting a 12 " hole in your bow and then fiberglassing the tube in place ?

That's about the size I am installing. The 7 5/16 is most likely the inside dimension. The actual hole is probably 8". Something am sure your installer is well aware of. Anyways sure you will enjoy it and ya that tunnel lenght should be plenty

Re: 346 Bow Thruster
One time I needed help, but a thruster would not have helped. Came across the lake and it got bad. Like 35mph winds.
Radioed in and a neighbor was waiting with 100 foot of line. Pulled up, tied it to a center cleat, let the wind blow me down to my slip, and he, God bless him, locked that line tight right at the right time and swung right in. Perfect.
