Has any one replaced underpowered Lewmar 110TT to a more potent unit? If so what unit was choosen to replace it?
 
I don’t find mine underpowered but I drool over the stern thruster attached to the outboard on the boat next to me!

I find with the wind/water current in my docking area, the 110TT is way underpowered. I have been looking for an upgrade but so far no luck. I also find the amount of work to cut out the old and put in a new/larger thruster to be more than I want to tackle. Then, will the electrical cables and relays handle the increased load/current or will they all need to be changed as well??
