The vessel will augment the services provided by the vessel Archipel 1, which offers a daily sailing between Guadeloupe Saint-François and the island of La Désirade. It will allow the owner to offer a more stable...
In order to develop and modernise its fleet, the owner commissioned French-run, Dalian, China-based boat builder ODC Marine to work on a new vessel, with three primary goals: to fit in with the design of the existing fleet; to offer an improved passenger experience; and be a world-leader in terms of environmental friendliness. “This vessel is without doubt one of the ...

“For our debut at Boot Düsseldorf … in addition to the HS60, a stabilizer model optimized for planing boats with speeds of over 24 knots, we have chosen the smallest Waveless model, the ultra compact electric stabilizer, because of its outstanding commercial success,” said CMC Marine founder and CEO Alessandro Cappiello in a statement. CMC Marine said northern Europe ...

The portrait format is ideal for allowing operators to see further down the river, while highlighting traffic, weather and markers in narrow channels. The RRD-19T is simple to install in any panel mount or dash top configuration and is compatible with ...
It’s hard to imagine three vessels, in a single class, as different in layout, purpose and execution than the trio of multihulls that comprised the year’s Best Full-Size Multihull class. Two of the three were catamarans, and the third a most unusual craft: a cruising trimaran. Sorting out these unique boats was a challenge. The multimillion-dollar Eagle Class 53—built...
The latest addition to the line up is its first electric cutter suction dredge (ECSD) 650. With electric motors powering the dredge system, the ECSD 650 makes possible zero emissions dredging projects. The electric power provides a significant reduction in noise, adding an extra tier of sustainability and ensuring the dredge’s suitability for projects in densely populate...
Last month we featured the DeepSeaker DS1 four-person personal submarine. However if your toy budget won’t stretch to €1 million for a proper submarine and substantially more for a superyacht big enough to park it on, there are more economical ways to explore the depths without getting wet. The Geneinno Titan T1 is, according to its manufacturer, the deepest-diving co...
Sealite's Omni-Directional Sector Lantern (SL-ODSL) has a small form factor design offering up to 2,600 candela in white. The SL-ODSL features high quality LEDs and enhanced refractive optics which enables the ODSL to be more efficient and ensure light is only projected where it is needed. This allows for greater optical range as well as power efficiency. It is de...
Getting the best performance out of a racing yacht is tough, with lots of controlled and uncontrolled variables in the equation to success. Accurate sensors are essential to provide the valid data on which crews can make decisions, and confidently repeat optimum settings for performance. Sensors for wind speed and angle, boatspeed and heading have evolved over the decade...
Designer Chirstian Grande – who oversees design for the entire Invictus lineup – created the CX270. Grande has played with the contrast in details, pairing shiny stainless steel with soft leathers. As an option, an owner can extend the solid teak of the cockpit floor to the stern platform. The CX series marries Invictus’ high-performance hull design with a liveable la...

Traditional systems require the operative to stay in a single location on a vessel, sending instructions via radio or running back and forth to adjust the settings. The Clearspray 150 FBC changes that. Now users can control everything from a portable, handheld touchscreen device. Designed for operation from tugs, offshore supply vessels, workboats and other specialise...
A new solution from Jotun Paints does both of those things for an issue that has plagued the industry for decades. The accumulation of fouling on a ship can lead to a drop in performance but the many anti-fouling coatings that are available don’t completely resolve the issue. Simply put, the technology used to date has not been able to guarantee an always clean hull, ...
During this years Cannes Yachting Festival, Rowan Gyde from Nautic Expo took the time to chat with Louis Taurel, marketing director for Tofinou a CHANTIER NAVAL LATITUDE 46 brand. Elegance and prestige play a big part in catching the eye at Cannes Yachting Festival and Tofinou's new 9.7 certainly caught many. The interview took place on the Stark designed Tofinou 12. h...
For more security when lifting the outboard motor Because of the 2 different mounting options the crane can be attached to the railing or railing support. The deck socket is only fixed on the deck with a screw and it is ready for use. With the pulley and the 4-power reduction, it´s easy to lift up and down the motor and can also be a helper for heavy purchases. The...
A dry bag is handy for sportboat and offshore sailors, and it’s even better is you can sling it over your shoulders when going to and from the boat. Most dry bags are great, but not all are created equal. Zhik’s new 30-liter pack is built of a heavy-duty, waterproof fabric that will take the abuse of life in the bilge, and the roll-top bag features well-padded, mesh-vent...
A sun hat that doesn’t flip up in a breeze? That’s the Arntson Tahoe Brim Hat claim. So, we tested it aboard a powerboat—28 mph, and still no lift-off. This thing works. It’s done with an ingenious brim construction that includes a thin wire around the perimeter coupled with a foam and laminated plastic layer inboard of that. But it’s not just stiffness that makes this h...
Rooster Sailing has long been a force in dinghy sailing gear, particularly with their popular three-quarter-length hikers, which have unique, ergonomic hiking pads that attach with Velcro to the inside of each leg, allowing custom pad placement. The Rooster Pro Hiker, which capitalizes on the benefits of the three-quarter hiker, now comes with full-length legs, as wel...
The first of a new generation of stylish, efficient boats is the Beach 55, designed by Cor D Rover with naval architecture by Albert Nazarov, whose back catalogue includes everything from leisure power catamarans to special purpose commercial craft. The Jetten 55 has been designed for fast efficiency, with Volvo Penta IPS providing a balance of performance and fuel ec...
Nowhere will this be more apparent than on this new model, which may be the smallest boat in the range but thanks to its enormous flybridge, pilothouse and four cabins is still likely to feel bigger than most of its 75ft competitors. At 22.86m it drops well below the 24m threshold, meaning the skipper doesn’t require a commercial licence to run the boat. In fact, Hori...
But however unlikely it looks, the reality is that floating docks for jet skis do work brilliantly, protecting the hull and delicate internals from fouling, holding them secure even in bad weather, and being far easier to slide the ski on and off of than a basic understanding of physics would suggest. They’ve been around for a while now, most marinas have a raft of th...
Still in its developmental stage, the DeepSeaker DS1 is a lightweight composite craft capable of seating three passengers plus a pilot. Pressurised to 1ATM and air conditioned, it will be fitted with a system that can extract oxygen directly from seawater, giving a near endless supply of air (provided the batteries hold out – there is a spare oxygen bottle as well). ...
And yet here it is, the new flagship of the Jeanneau Cap Camarat range, the 12.5WA. With a beamy but purposeful-looking hull designed by Michael Peters and either twin 450hp or triple 300hp Yamaha outboards it has the speed to keep pace with more focused sportsboats but also a more spacious cruising-oriented layout. You can really feel that width in the cockpit, espec...
It uses the same proven hull as Rodman’s 33ft fast patrol boat but has been adapted for leisure use as the ultimate fast fishing boat. As with all Rodman boats, the mouldings feel impressively robust with a hand-laid hull and vacuum-moulded locker lids for a nice smooth finish. In true fishing boat style the cockpit had been left bare but fitted with flip-up benche...

The setup of mooring lines has never been a easy task. This seemingly simple action often requires vessels for transportation, which has high labor costs and low efficiency. Recently, a passenger port in Zhuhai, China has created a new solution for long distance line deployment using a new type of small water-jet board. Earlier this month, Zhuhai Jiuzhou Port carried ...
