Bow & Stern thruster replacement


Recently purchased a 35 SS with inop Volvo Penta QL 600 12v bow thruster. Appears it got locked up and corroded when the forward bilge previously flooded. Like many components, it's discontinued and direct replacements are not available.

Has anyone replaced theirs with a different thruster on the same tunnel successfully and were you able to use the existing QL thruster control units or does anyone have any advice in this area?

I would assume in theory I should be able to use another 12v thruster with the existing control unit and Side-Power joystick controls, or am I missing something?
