Hi,
The Stern Thruster is not a "third wheel" it is a Pump Jet.
Azipods are suited to larger vessels and there are a lot of issues to be addressed when using them. The current crop of Abekings boats are pretty short of space in the back end and could not support the height inside or the mass of the Azipod hanging off the outside. There would also be a space issue for all the drive gear electrics and electronics to run an Azipod boat.
