The Voith company has built traction systems for the tugboat industry for a long time. The systems are remarkable in their ability to place power within 360 degree. I have been on tugs and have gone from full power forward to reverse and to the side and it defies what I have seen on any other boat.
The inline thruster seems to be another innovative product from a well respected company. The engineering seems to be first rate and the manufacturing displayed in their past products is first class. I would not consider any product from them to be anything but commercial and viable.
