Hi Guys

Is it possible to fit a bow thruster to a 2005 Bavaria 36 cruiser with a factory fitted forward water tank in place.

It would seem so looking at this photo of a 36 for sale at Network Yacht Brokers

Why do you need one? Is it really necessary on this boat? My motto is keep it simple.

Many reasons for having a bow thruster. If you are in a position where it would make life easier for you - or even make it possible to use your boat more, then it is well worth installing one. If it is of no value to you and the way you use your boat then clearly don't fit one.
