How strong a bow thurster - S&S Swan 431?

I You all!

I' appreciate of Your comments about installing a bow thurster. If You had to choose between the next MaxPower models: A retractable 900 Nm model or a tube installed 1250Nm model? I know the rectractable one could be installed much more forward than the tube model in my deep veed yacht, thus getting better leverage. But what I need is personal opinions and comments!

BR,

IHe, Finland
