Thruster Packages
Many recreational boaters know that marinas are becoming increasing crowded. In these conditions, safety can be a concern as houseboats attempt to maneuver at slow speeds -- a challenge for many operators.
To address this, Hydro-Ventures has designed thruster packages specifically for maneuvering large houseboats. These thrusters give houseboat operators complete control of the boat, and the ability to maneuver with ease. Thrusters are like power steering for a car. They help people who aren’t quite as adept to maneuver the boat in and out of the slip. It also helps them get the boat safely along fuel docks and into marinas.mett.in Thrusters can be operated using remote control thus giving houseboat operators the ability to operate without the need for a large, skilled crew. Today, a majority of houseboat manufacturers -- like Thoroughbred, Sumerset, Horizon, Stardust, Majestic, Botewerks, Fantasy Yachts, Starlite, Sunstar, Lakeview, and FunTime -- are using Hydro-Ventures hydraulic thruster packages as their original equipment choice on new boats!
Platform Lift
The SWL-042 swim platform lift is another specialized product by Hydro-Ventures. As opposed to other conventional cylinder platform lifts, this remarkable lift features two cylinders that are constructed with both ports inside the rod. The cylinders mount from the rod end and the rear of the cylinders with the slide. This clever design helps to prevent the rod from becoming submerged and contaminated with debris in the water. The lift is able to lift up to 4,000 pounds without straining.
History of Hydro-Ventures
Hydro-Ventures was founded in 1993 by Robert Sainte, President and Owner, as a research, design, and manufacturing organization. He led the company in the investigation and creation of products like CT Scanning equipment, surgical tables, landing gears, braking systems and computer controlled closed loop systems on Tomography and X-Ray tables. Through this, he helped keep Hydro-Ventures in the forefront of technology.
A successful inventor and entrepreneur, Mr. Sainte has obtained multiple patents in a wide variety of industries. He graduated from St. Joseph’s College in 1970 with a B.S. in Business Administration. He then went on to earn his MBA in 1982 from the University of Kentucky. After college, Robert became the president and owner of Advanced Hydraulic Systems, Inc, a medical devices industry. He worked with them for over 13 years before starting up Hydro-Ventures. Robert has over 30 years of experience as a hydraulic designer, which he uses to develop the unique products for Hydro-Ventures.
Additional Information
Hydro-Ventures was awarded $7,500 from the Kentucky Enterprise Fund and Energy Ventures in order to develop a specialized hydraulic braking system.
This innovative braking system interprets analog signals from a controller attached to the brake system of the tow vehicle. This input is then converted to a proportional brake response on the trailer.
