New partnership with Alamarin Jet

Motocraft SA is pleased to announce the its partnership with Alamarin Jet. Alamarin Jet is one of the leading manufacturers of water jet propulsion systems for yachts, work boats, military and lifeboats. Alamarin Jet's solutions are designed for maximum performance, reliability and ease of use, delivering excellent performance and extraordinary control of the boat.

 

Alamarin-Jet History


Alamarin-Jet was founded over 40 years ago in 1976 by Finnish engineer Mr. Jussi Mäntylä.

Jussi Mäntylä’s hobby was sport fishing along the rocky coast of the Baltic Sea, of course this environment is not well suited to outboards or sterndrives and he realised that a water jet was required. Having investigated what was available to purchase he decided to develop his own water jet…and Alamarin-Jet Oy was born.


Alamarin-Jet started with the manufacturing of their Hard Top Jet Boat range and also in the early days offered complete boat conversations including engines from Ford Sabre, Volvo Penta and Mercury.

Alamarin-Jet also made complete jet modifications to Buster and Silver boats, the largest manufacturers of aluminium boats in Europe.

In the beginning of the early 1990s Alamarin-Jet stopped building boats and focussed only on the production of complete water jet units.

1997 marked the beginning of deliveries to SOLAS type approved vessels, with the AJ 230 being fitted by ASTRA-MARINE OY in Finland to their newest Fast Rescue Craft.

Alamarin-Jet are now the worldwide market leader supplying jets to the SOLAS LIFE BOAT industry.

In 2002 Alamarin-Jet entered a new era when it was purchased by the HT-GROUP,  with Mr Hannu Teiskonen’s main aim to turn Alamarin-Jet into a world leading manufacturer of water jet propulsion systems.

OXE diesel 150hp outboard delivered by Motocraft SA in Greece

The OXE diesel 150hp outboard just delivered by Motocraft SA in Greece, stands true to its name and easily thrusts this 9,5m, weighing an immense 10 tons HDPE work-boat operating at the Ionian Sea!

 

The boat operates 8 hours/day and supplies fish farms with food, gear and personnel.

The OXE Diesel 150hp outboard, by Cimco Marine AB, was selected for this demanding project as it offers unparalleled efficiency and torque with low fuel consumption and emissions, critical for the sensitive environment it operates. OXE is the world's first high performance diesel outboard setting new standards for durability, fuel-efficiency and low emissions for an outboard engine.

OXE is the world's first high performance diesel outboard setting new standards for durability, fuel-efficiency and low emissions for an outboard engine.

 

Cimco Marine, the manufacturer behind the engine, started this project with the mission to design the first high output diesel outboard, the keywords were durability, endurance and performance. These words are now embedded within this product.

 

The patented technology has enabled Cimco to design a robust drive unit that will effectively transfer high torque diesel power. Combined with a modular layout and proven diesel technology, this ensures for an extremely robust heavy-duty product.

 

The OXE Diesel Outboard fulfills the NATO "single fuel" directive, offering ideal, safe solutions for naval, military, rescue and large commercial applications, but also for small craft fishermen, survey, tourism, yacht tender, taxi and pilot operations where range, load carrying performance and running costs are more significant factors.

 

DIESEL

The common rail turbo charged diesel engine provides high efficiency and torque. This results in powerful thrust and acceleration, with the capacity to carry heavy loads. The engine runs on a large variety of fuels: EN 590, ASTM D 975 etc.

ENVIRONMENT

The use of highly refined, modern automotive based engine technology provides for the industry leading emission levels and subsequent minimized impact on the environment.

SAFETY

Diesel is a less flammable fuel and therefore safe to work with in hazardous environments. Robust design and crash stop capabilities leads to safe operation in fierce conditions.

MAINTENANCE

Easily accessible service points and a modular design create a user friendly environment. The reliable automotive powerhead keeps costs of maintenance and spare parts low. The modular design gives the user the opportunity to change parts and maintain the outboard without having to replace the unit.

SeaStar steering equipment to be used as standard on US builder’s larger boat models

Sea Pro Boats in the US has chosen Dometic’s SeaStar Optimus EPS and SeaStar Power Assist steering as standard equipment on its larger, high-horsepower boat models.

 

Sea Pro’s 259 DLX and soon-to-be-launched 319 DLX centre console fishing boats are the flagships of the Sea Pro line, which includes bay boats and deep-vee centre consoles from 17t-31ft. They measure 25.9ft and 31.9ft respectively, and are built for today’s large, powerful outboard motors.

Both models offer the latest features and advanced technology, making them an ideal match for Optimus EPS (Electronic Power Steering). Sea Pro will also be offering SeaStar Optimus 360 Joystick control as a factory option.

“We want owners of new Sea Pro boats to enjoy the best possible experience every time they step behind the helm,” says Sea Pro Boats president Jimmy Hancock. “This advanced SeaStar steering technology provides a sense of effortless, precision control — especially important with today’s larger, more powerful engines.

“We want to deliver a boat that doesn’t just look great and fish great, but also feels greats to the driver. SeaStar is helping us deliver on this promise,” Hancock adds.
