5. Easy Maintenance and Upgradability

Built with durability and convenience in mind, the SX50 is easily serviceable when the boat is lifted. The thruster can be refitted with a new O-ring seal, ensuring long-lasting operation. For those seeking advanced control, the SX50 is available in a PRO version with variable speed control, providing even greater maneuvering precision.
