[Sentoa] Stern thrusters for a 32

[Jeff Hassell]

We had Cap Sante Marine install a Lewmar stern thruster on our 32-285  
prior to delivery. It is marvelous. And Cap Sante did a great job. Our  
installation is on the extended hull (integrated swim step) of course.  
Yes, it is completely unnecessary when the wind is not blowing and  
tides are not running. But the rest of the time it is invaluable. I  
can send you some pics if you like. Ours is one size smaller than the  
bow thruster, and CS replaced the single stick control with the dual  
controls both at the helm and on the flybridge. I think cost was about  
$8k with the dual station controls, AGM battery, etc.
