Since our very first delivery in 2000 – for a river cruise vessel – Steerprop has delivered the combination of comfort, manoeuvrability and efficiency needed for passenger vessels. Operating on busy schedules where downtime must be planned and minimised means our exceptionally reliable thrusters are in high demand on ferries, ro-ro vessels and expedition cruise ships.
Our dedicated focus on propulsion allows us to meet both shipyard and operator expectations on cost and delivery timeframes, even while exceeding expectations on efficiency, reliability and lifecycle costs—providing custom-designed solutions without a custom price tag.
As industry needs for passenger comfort and low underwater radiated noise evolve, Steerprop’s hydrodynamic expertise has come into its own. Our thruster configurations help vessels gain the highest classifications in comfort and quiet, with proprietary innovations that allow responsible operators to minimise disturbance, both for their paying passengers and the marine wildlife they encounter along the way.
These Steerprop solutions are especially suitable for ferries and cruise ships:
