I have about a 30 year old naiad hydraulic Thruster that will run for days but after installing a side power stern Thruster just seems weak. When I run her at 800rpm versus the 600 idle she has tons of power however.
What are my least expensive options? Can I replace the pump or change the system in some way to run at 800rpm like output at 600rpm or is it better to try and change the propeller unit to a newer more efficient model? It seems like just increasing the pump output for a given rpm would be easy but i might be missing something. I don’t know much about hydraulic systems so guidance would be appreciated.
