Which ships have both bow and stern thrusters?
« on: December 04, 2014, 01:48:00 »

I was wondering which ships in Ship Simulator 2008 have both stern and bow thrusters. I am not looking for ships with both bow and stern thrusters on the DLC. I only want ships with bow and stern thrusters on the regular full game. Thank you for your assistance

With the basic game there is only one ship with two thrusters, the "Fairmount Sherpa" which is an anchor handling tug for the oil industry. However if you update the game to version 1.4.2. with the FREE updates from the Ship Simulator website you can download a FREE  Heavy lifting ship the "Jumbo Javelin" which has a bow thruster and a low powered thruster for positioning the ship which is placed, not at the stern, but close to it. See attached pictures.

I suppose the Red Eagle qualifies as the ultimate ship with bow and stern thrusters.. ;)

You are quite right salty, I was not thinking of "Red Eagle", but technically she does have bow and stern thrusters, even though the drives will actually push her in any direction one chooses. Good thinking there! :2thumbs:

Hi Mineobi,
You should register your game on the forum here. We can only give help to players with a legal version of the game. If you click on "Profile" at the top of the screen you will see where you can register the game.
