Thrusters
SXE100 External Stern Thruster 24V
100 kg variable thrust
-
S-LINK™
S-Link™ is a CAN-based control system used for communication between Sleipner products installed on a vessel.
- Compact and waterproof plugs
- Keyed and color-coded connectors to ensure correct and easy installation
- Different cable lengths, extenders and T-connectors makes the system scalable and flexible to install
-
Q-PROP™
The Q-PROP™ has measured noise reductions of up to 75% in controlled environments. The five-bladed skew propeller reduces noise levels while maintaining exceptional efficiency. Some thruster models even see an increase in thrust power.
- The expected noise reduction in average installations: 20-40%
- Upgrade kits are available for most Sleipner thruster models with special adaptors
-
PRO™
A PRO™ thruster system enables you to apply only the necessary power to complete your maneuver. The variable speed control eliminates the noise associated with standard on/off thrusters.
The system also includes a practical hold-function. In a dual system (bow and stern) a single press of a button will keep you alongside the docks - making docking truly a one-person job.
Speed controlled thrusters are the best choice for joystick interaction. -
IGNITION PROTECTION
Ignition-protected products are compliant with ISO 8846 to operate safely in hazardous environments where gasoline vapors or other flammable gases might be present.
-
OVERHEAT PROTECTION
When high temperatures are detected, On/off thrusters are automatically shut off to prevent overheating. PRO™ thrusters with speed control provide extended run-time by derating power to maintain temperature within safe levels.
-
GALVANIC SEPARATION
Immersed parts exposed to seawater are galvanic isolated from the onboard electrical system, eliminating stray currents.
-
SEALED DRIVE LUBRICATION
The thruster gearleg is pre-filled for lifetime lubrication and sealed using a long-time mechanical seal with ceramic and carbon surfaces for ultimate security against water intrusion.
-
FLEXIBLE COUPLING
Flexible coupling protects the product’s driveline by compensating for minor misalignments between the shafts of the thruster motor and gearleg.
-
TWIN PROPELLERS
Twin propellers can provide more thrust than a single propeller system in the same tunnel diameter. We use this system in our mid-range models, where high thrust is required in small tunnel diameters. Due to the compact design and high performance, the twin models have become the thrusters of choice among boatbuilders worldwide.
Item code: SXE100/185T-24V
The SXE100 is an externally mounted stern thruster for boats up to 55 feet with twin stern drives. Based on the proven SX100 platform, this version is equipped with Sleipner's eVision technology for efficient performance, intelligent control and quiet, brushless operation.
Delivering 100-116 kg of thrust, the thruster uses specially designed cowls to redirect water past the stern drives for optimal maneuverability. Its sealed, waterproof housing is installed on the transom, to tunnel needed, and only requires a small hole for the power and control cables.
Hightlights
- External mounting – no tunnel required
- Quiet, energy-efficient brushless motor
- Optimized for twin stern drive installations
- Maintenance-free, sealed design
- Easy Plug & Play installation
The system comes fully assembled and wired for easy installation, and is compatible with proportional control systems as well as wireless remotes for flexible operation on board. See the 'compatible products' tab for more information.
Optional cowls can be mounted on the tunnel openings to direct water flow away from stern drives or other stern-mounted obstacles.

A legacy that commits
We’ve lived and worked with the unruly sea for a hundred years. That’s why we develop important features that enables a boat to handle the sea better – that enable you to enjoy your boat, at anchor and at full speed. That is why you wanted a boat, isn’t it?
-
Beautiful engineering
The technology in our solutions is world-class. We know, because we’ve developed it ourselves, just as we manufacture every solution, and follow them until their fixed to a hull, ourselves. This meticulous attention to detail is why your day out always will be better with a Sleipner aboard.
-
Worldwide service
We take pride in our solutions’ function throughout their lifespan. So, we never really let them out of sight, even when they’ve left for distant shores. Our global network is there to ensure continuous optimal function. You know what you get with a Sleipner, today and tomorrow.
