Not to change the subject, but I thought you were moving up? 40ft?

I just met the owner of NE bow thrusters and even he speaks highly of Paul (at FL bow thrusters) I think it comes down to whomever gives you the best price as they both use high quality eqipment, have a good reputation, and stand behind their work - Good Luck with the upgrade/mod and keep us posted

Beerman-
390 / 40, the 390 was made in 04 & 05 then 06 same boat now called the 40! With this econony we decided to keep cost undercontrol & maintain lifestyle The 04, 390 is it!
I boat once or twice a week myself and the thruster will help tame the North wind when I come in.

Idintdoit-
I called Florida bow thrusters and got a cost earlier ( 11K ). My local dealer was 7K over FBT!
Just looking for more options! better cost! I'l give NE Bow Thruster a call tomorow.Thanks.
