As commercial boat operations increase both operating speeds and demands on crews capabilities the next generation of maritime communications may be using technology that has been developed for military and security applications.

Maritime Reporter

Hybrid is ‘here and now’ technology that is being utilised by many industries around the world. The marine industry is now recognising the potential of utilising hybrid power and innovative propulsion systems for vessels in the sub IMO professional sector.

Ship & Offshore

In 2015 two significant developments are going to make many operators and builders of professional vessels consider hybrid marine power. Firstly the new emissions laws in ports and secondly there is now an incentive to invest in developing highly efficient batteries.

Marine News

Professional high speed craft operators need a combination of shock mitigation solutions. There is no ‘silver bullet’ - shock mitigation is about reducing forces and potential injury by a few percent wherever possible via the hull, seats and deck.

In 2015 two significant developments are going to make many operators, owners and builders of professional vessels consider hybrid marine power. Firstly the new emissions laws in ports and secondly the development of next generation battery systems.

Ship & Boat International

Industry is making innovative progress developing optimal propulsion solutions for fast craft in the sub-IMO (sub 24 metre) sector. Engine manufacturers now recognise that high performance must be balanced with fuel economy and environmental compliance.

Marine News

A major challenge for the builders of next generation high speed craft is delivering platforms that balance high performance with the physical demands on crew and passengers. With unbreakable boats plus a surplus of engine power Shock Mitigation is essential.

Marine News

Mobility and manoeuvrability plus the ability to operate in shallow areas are critical capabilities for small craft. Defining a multi-role craft is a challenge for large fleet procurements. Examines the roles of hovercraft, foiling craft, Personal Water Craft (PWC) and innovations.

Defence Industry Bulletin

Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) procurement is relevant for organisations operating fast boats. The Briefing Room contributions are from leading experts around the globe which examine every facet of the modern defence and military sector covering land, sea and air.

Marine News

Performance, Speed, Fuel Economy and Environmental Compliance all come together to form the ultimate balancing act for OEM engine manufacturers and end-user organisations alike. Examines the future of propulsion systems and fuel types in the fast boat sector.

Marine News

Many variables drive the design decisions for High Speed Craft and RHIBs. Timelines and budget constraints are increasingly driving procurement decisions. Various Commercial Off The Shelf (COTS) hull, engineering and equipment solutions are increasingly viable.
