Page 8: Positioning Of The Tunnel / Thruster
Positioning of the tunnel / thruster MC_0003 Aim to install the thruster as far forward as possible (1) Due to the leverage effect around the boats’ pivot point. The distance difference from the boat pivots’ point to the thruster will determine the amount of real rotation power for the boat. -
Page 9: Tunnel Length
Tunnel Length MC_0003 Optimal tunnel length Achieving the correct tunnel length depends on many factors from the hull type, operation and environmental conditions. Tunnels should avoid being longer than 4 x the tunnel diameter as this will reduce thruster performance. (NB: Installing long length tunnels can flex/ bend over time and may require additional support. -
Page 10: Tunnel Installation In Sailboats
Tunnel installation in Sailboats MC_0003 Some sail boats have a flat bottom and shallow draft in the bow section. This can make installing the thruster as far forward from the boats main pivot point diffi cult. (Fig. 1). However, it is possible to install a tunnel thruster in most sail boats, even when the hull does not directly support the fi tting of a tunnel. Instead fi... -
Page 11: Water Deflection
Water Deflection MC_0003 A possible problem in sail boats or fast powerboats is that a non-rounded surface can generate drag from the back face of the tunnel, as it creates a “flat” area facing the flow of water. This problem can be solved in two different ways, depending on what is possible or easier to perform. The best solution which generally reduces the most drag is to make a recess in the hull at the back of the tunnel. -
Page 12: Tunnel Ends
Tunnel Ends MC_0003 Rounded tunnel ends will maximise thrust and minimise noise and cavitation. For best performance round the tunnel connection to the hull-side as much as possible. The minimum rounding has a radius of 10% of the diameter of the tunnel. -
Page 13: Tunnel Installation
Tunnel Installation MC_0003 IMPORTANT We recommend that a professional does the fi breglass, steel or aluminium fi tting of the tunnel. These instructions are only general instructions and do not explain in any way the details of fi breglass work. Problems caused by faulty installation of the tunnel, are the installers full responsibility. - Page 14 Tunnel Installation MC_0003 With tunnel installed and cast. Round the edges with a radius of 10% of the tunnel diameter. For steel/ aluminium hulls make a slope with a length of 10-15% of the tunnel diameter. (NB: If this is not possible, round the tunnel end as much as possible.) Additionally cast two layers on the outside of the tunnel/ hull in a 10cm area Follow the same method if making the deflector/ spoiler.

Gear Leg & Motor Bracket Installation MC_0001 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Mark the tunnel centreline and the boat’s centreline. (NB: Install the gear leg and propeller as shown above for the thrust direction to correspond with the control panel. -
Page 17: Propeller Installation
Propeller Installation MC_0022 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Rotate the propeller shaft, so the propeller key is on top. Remove the tape holding the propeller key in its recess on the propeller shaft. Insert the propeller onto the propeller shaft until the propeller key aligns into the slot/ groove in the propeller. -
Page 18: Motor Installation
Motor Installation MC_0109 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Install the motor onto the motor bracket ensuring the couplings are engaged together correctly (top and bottom). (NB: The motor can be placed in all directions on the motor bracket. -
Page 19: Oil Tank Installation
Oil Tank Installation MC_0023 ! Please refer to the graphic for special considerations relating to your model ! Install the oil tank above the waterline by at least 20% of the distance from the waterline to the centre of the tunnel. This ensures enough overpressure for the oil in the gear leg. -

Page 21: S-Link System Description
MC_0120 S-Link is a CAN-based control system used for communication between Sleipner products installed on a vessel. The system uses BACKBONE Cables as a common power and communication bus with separate SPUR Cables to each connected unit. Units with low power consumption are powered directly from the S-Link bus therefore one power cable must be connected to the BACKBONE Cable through a T-Connector. -
