OXE MARINE'S WATER JET ENGINE NOMINATED FOR INNOVATION OF THE YEAR AT THE MIAMI INTERNATIONAL BOAT SHOW
OXE Marine AB has achieved a significant milestone as its diesel-powered outboard engine, developed in collaboration with JET-TECH, was nominated for Innovation of the Year at the Miami International Boat Show on February 23, 2023. The OXE300 model is the world's most powerful outboard featuring water jet propulsion, thanks to its proprietary power transmission system. This groundbreaking technology allows for high torque handling without power loss. The innovation not only enhances fuel efficiency but also offers environmental benefits by eliminating traditional propellers, making it easier to maneuver in shallow waters.

- High power and fuel efficiency in a single engine design.
- None.
ÄNGELHOLM, Sweden,
By equipping an OXE300 diesel-powered outboard with waterjet technology, OXE Marine, together with JET-TECH, has created a configuration that combines OXE Marine's powerful and fuel-efficient outboard with the advantages of waterjet propulsion. The configuration is the world's first and most powerful outboard with water jet propulsion and axial flow.
"The nomination is great recognition for both our technology and our innovation capabilites. No one has succeeded in combining a fuel-efficient and powerful diesel outboard like the OXE300 with water jet propulsion in the same successful way," states
Waterjet propulsion lacks the traditional propeller and propels the boat forward by creating a powerful jetstream of water. The lack of a traditional propeller allows a flatter hull, is easier to maneuver in shallow water, and is a kinder choice for the marine environment as it eliminates the need for sharp propellers. Thanks to OXE Marine's unique belt transmission system, all torque generated by the diesel engine is transferred to the water jet drive itself without loss of power.
"The commercial launch of the world's first and most powerful diesel outboard with waterjet propulsion and the highest efficiency of all waterjet engines, represents a game-changer. Others are not able to transfer such high torques to the lower part of the rig, but we do it thanks to our belt drive which, in combination with a waterjet drive, can handle even higher loads," says
