Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze how bow thrusters are designed and implemented as a propulsion system for training vessels at the Ministry of Transportation's Maritime School. Bow thrusters are chosen because of their potential to improve the maneuverability and operational efficiency of training vessels, which are very important in the context of maritime training. To conduct this study, we use a descriptive-analytical approach. The data used come from literature studies and field trials on prototype training vessels. From the results of the study, it is proven that the use of bow thrusters significantly improves maneuverability when in busy ports and also optimizes efficiency in fuel use. These findings have practical implications that can be used as a reference in developing training curricula at maritime schools, as well as providing recommendations for using similar technology more widely in the shipping industry. To overcome the limitations in bow thruster design and application, it is recommended to continue further research in the future to provide better recommendations.
