Products
Cooling Systems for Yachts and Commercial Vessels
Using Blokland boxcoolers in the design of efficient cooling system for main engines, generators and auxiliary systems. These are used in fuel-savind and green fuel propulsion
Rudder Systems for Yachts and Commercial Vessels
Complete rudder systems with best steering capabilities. Engineering, innovation and production in-house at our modern production facility in The Netherlands.
Propulsion Systems for Yachts and Commercial Vessels
We truly enjoy engineering and the production of propulsion and rudder systems. We keep you moving forward with our high-tech propulsion solutions. Thanks to our in-house engineering and production capacity, we deliver propulsion systems which are optimized for your application. Every yacht is unique. Therefore, we approach each project with the same, extensive expertise but a tailored point of view. Within propulsion and rudder systems, our portfolio is focused on yachts with a length of 5 up to 70 meters. Careless sailing and traveling the world is of tremendous importance for the yachts we are equipping. We are determined to contribute to this, so that our clients can fully enjoy sailing the world without the need to worry about the potential environmental harm of our products. For this reason, we continuously develop and improve our environmental capabilities while investing in new and innovative technologies.
Azimuth thruster for Yachts and Commercial Vessels
Current Motion thrusters are designed to be able to use a rather big propeller diameter to have a maximum efficiency when the vessel speed is low. Due to the electric drive and the selection of the gear ratio’s, Current Motion offer the possibility to use the thruster at maximum load also with a smaller propeller, since the drive line is designed in a way that the thruster can be used within the propellers most efficient range, with a smaller or bigger diameter. To have a low sound level Current Motion will use a pulling propeller (tractor) to be able to have a optimum wake field in front of the propeller. This means the propeller can be designed for maximum efficiency without being forced to modify the blade design to deal with a bad wakefield in front of the propeller.
Tunnel thrusters for Yachts and Commercial Vessels
Tunnel thrusters positioned at the bow or stern of a vessel, can increase the maneuverability and support dynamic position operations. We can supply electric or hydraulic motor-driven tunnel thrusters from 35kW to 100kW in single propeller and counter rotating execution. CR tunnel thrusters can be chosen for vessels with limited draught or low noise requirements. Depending on the vessel hull material, the tunnel structures can be manufactured in steel, aluminum, or GRP.
