Seems like every day, you pick up a marine periodical or visit a web site and you find there is yet another new drive or power technology available to you to power your vessel with. Perhaps you will see that the propulsion drive decision you took only a few months back is suddenly no longer the best option. Technology is moving fast in the emissions reduction and propulsion power field—how can you be sure that today’s powering decision will not be tomorrow’s obsolete technology?

There is a marine propulsion drive system available TODAY that can help protect your investment against obsolescence and is readily adaptable to virtually any future technologies.

• A system that is scalable, reconfigurable and adaptable. It can incorporate the best of today, and the best of tomorrow as well.
• A system that is literally, “plug & play”.
• A system that can do everything from measure your fuel consumption, to calling home to tell you if it sees a problem.
• A system that is friendly to the people who must operate and maintain it.
• A system that can run on a wide range of fuels.
• A system that is lower in maintenance than any other diesel-electric system and more vessel-friendly.
• A system that is so modular and user-friendly, that you can borrow pieces of it from one place, to solve a problem in another place, just by unplugging a module and relocating it.
• A system more reliable than any other you can find...developed by a company whose founders and partners are firms with stellar reputations in permanent magnet motors and drive technology, battery management technology, shipboard power management, switchgear and switchboard design and construction, and a naval architectural firm long experienced in vessel design.
