Hi, after using the bowthruster in the habour with wind 28 knts from the side the bowthruster failed - happy that all lines were fixed. Fuse etc were ok. After a while of rest the bowthruster was working good again. I think it was automatic shutdown by thermal fuse ? As the bowthruster Box has no ventilation I am thinking about a passive or active ventilation to the front compartment. Common failure ? Any comment ?
