OXE Jet-Tech Launched

OXE, Jet-Tech introduces new outboard waterjet at Seawork 2023

Seawork 2023 will see the European introduction of OXE Marine’s new Jet-Tech.

Jet-Tech is a single stage compact high performance waterjet which combines mixed-flow properties within an axial design build, with a hybrid stator for high torque diesel outboard engines.

The Jet-Tech waterjet performance is equal to or better than propeller versions and is matched 1:1 to the unit horsepower-driven prop outboard, a level of achievement that has never been reached in any waterjet product to date, according to OXE Marine President Douglas Natoce.

The approach combines the key benefits of high-speed efficiency with cavitation margins at lower speeds & high load conditions.

The waterjet launch builds on OXE’s transformation of the high-horsepower, high torque diesel outboard market enabled by its OXE Diesel range.

The new Jet-Tech fits every OXE Diesel model currently in production 150hp – 300hp, sea trials of the Jet Tech will be available at Seawork 2023 from Tideman Boats berth VA04.

Winner of the BAIRD Maritime Award 2022 – Best Landing Craft

Fitted with twin OXE Marine 300hp diesel outboards “Ros Aine” is a multi-purpose vessel; she can do amazing things. She is an all-aluminium, diesel outboard-powered landing craft with comfortable, secure accommodation enhancing her capabilities.

Her sister vessel, CRC Walrus also fitted with twin OXE 300hp has been developed as an amphibious vessel operating at Scrobby Sands wind farm that is inaccessible by conventional boats at low tide.

Ros Aine is available for charter throughout Ireland, for more information contact Eoin Grimes at www.iccb.ie

Introducing the OXE Hybrid 450, the world’s first diesel-electric hybrid outboard.

Posted on April 25, 2023April 25, 2023 by nickyyeoman

Technology, available today, to transition demanding users into the future.

The OXE Hybrid 450 concept motor is the world’s first high-power diesel-electric outboard motor, based on OXE Marines’ leading patented diesel outboard technology and offers all the benefits of a fully electric propulsion system – full electric drive, increased fuel savings and additional range and power when needed.

The concept of this design allows the vessel to charge on the go! The vessels batteries charge directly from the 300hp diesel outboard while operational, guaranteeing availability of extra electric energy when and where you want it, no need to plug into shore power to charge up.

The OXE Hybrid 450 combines the best of two worlds and can be operated in three different modes:

Fully electric
Combustion engine only
Or a combination of both maximising the 450hp capability.

The combination of diesel technology and electric motor will ensure the OXE Hybrid will be one of the cleanest and most efficient outboard engines available. The electric motor also serves as an alternator and when operating on diesel, it can be used to charge the high-capacity lithium-ion on-board battery, providing additional power to both the electric motor and to various on-board electric equipment.

In collaboration with Nimbus Boats the OXE Hybrid concept engine will undergo stringent trials during the spring/summer 2023. Expected to start production and available for sale Q4 2023.

Proteum supplies OXE 300 to Commercial RIB Charter for new amphibious offshore support vessel

Posted on March 9, 2022 by nickyyeoman

Proteum is supplying twin 300hp OXE Diesel outboards to Commercial RIB Charter (CRC) for a fully amphibious vessel for support in offshore windfarm operations designed by Chartwell Marine and being built by Diverse Marine.

OXE 300hp Diesel outboards were chosen for their robust design and ability for the operator to shift quickly from forward to astern without damaging the commercially rated gearbox. They also provide increased range and market leading fuel economy.

The vessel’s innovative design includes hydraulically operated wheels to make her fully amphibious and capable of operating in extremely shallow waters. She will service turbines at RWE’s Scroby Sands Windfarm on the East Coast of England and is due for delivery in late August.

OXE is the world’s first high performance diesel outboard built for commercial users and is making significant market penetration worldwide due to the rugged, robust and reliable design. They are available in 150hp, 175hp, 200hp and 300hp options.
