Ocean Marine Systems (OMS) is delighted to announce that we have been awarded the thruster contract to supply electric swing thrusters to one of the largest sailing catamarans in the world.

The Italian Sea Group is to build a 46.5m sailing Catamaran ArtExplora, and OMS has been contracted to manufacture two very advanced electric swing thrusters through our partner in Italy Daviddi Marine.

The model [E400S] is unique to OMS and provides a highly compact electric driven thrust solution, providing both quiet and efficient thrust for the largest sailing yachts in the world.

“We are delighted to be working on this project with The Italian Sea Group and Daviddi Marine,” comments Mark Barwell Sales Director for OMS. “We have seen an increase in demand for our electric thruster solutions and in addition to ArtExplora we are fortunate to have another 40m project already well under construction with the same companies involved.”
