ÄNGELHOLM, Sweden,
Feb. 23,
2023 /PRNewswire/ -- OXE Marines AB (publ)
diesel-powered outboards with water jet propulsion, which were
developed together with JET-TECH, were nominated as one of the
innovations of the year at the recently concluded International
Boat Show in Miami. The engine is
one of the world's most powerful outboards with water jet
propulsion and has been made possible due to OXE's proprietary
power transmission system that can handle very high
torques.
By equipping an OXE300 diesel-powered outboard with waterjet
technology, OXE Marine, together with JET-TECH, has created a
configuration that combines OXE Marine's powerful and
fuel-efficient outboard with the advantages of waterjet propulsion.
The configuration is the world's first and most powerful outboard
with water jet propulsion and axial flow.
"The nomination is great recognition for both our technology and
our innovation capabilites. No one has succeeded in combining a
fuel-efficient and powerful diesel outboard like the OXE300 with
water jet propulsion in the same successful way," states
Anders Berg, CEO of OXE Marine
AB.
Waterjet propulsion lacks the traditional propeller and propels
the boat forward by creating a powerful jetstream of water. The
lack of a traditional propeller allows a flatter hull, is easier to
maneuver in shallow water, and is a kinder choice for the marine
environment as it eliminates the need for sharp propellers. Thanks
to OXE Marine's unique belt transmission system, all torque
generated by the diesel engine is transferred to the water jet
drive itself without loss of power.
"The commercial launch of the world's first and most powerful
diesel outboard with waterjet propulsion and the highest efficiency
of all waterjet engines, represents a game-changer. Others are not
able to transfer such high torques to the lower part of the rig,
but we do it thanks to our belt drive which, in combination with a
waterjet drive, can handle even higher loads," says Douglas Natoce, President at OXE Marine AB.
