Turbo Dynamics support Seawork 2015
Last week saw the Seawork International event, hosted locally at the ABP Port in Southampton, take place. Seawork International is a “hugely significant event for all sectors of the marine industry” says Elizabeth Jarrold of Turbo Dynamics. The exhibition hall was jam packed with companies from around the world showcasing their latest products ranging from gadgets and on-board safety devices to revolutionary technology and heavy-duty pioneering machinery, along with an array of vessels of all shapes and sizes lining to harbour.
The Seawork International event is “the largest and fastest growing international commercial marine and workboat exhibition and conference held in a European working port environment”. There were a number of ‘stand-out’ displays at the 2015 event including MDS Marines who chose the event to debut their monstrous award winning outboard turbocharged diesel engine which they call “the first commercially viable diesel outboard engine.” The engine received the Sea Work award for the most innovative entry in the Power & Propulsion category at the exhibition.
Poole based Golden Arrow Marine, who are customers of the turbocharger specialists, Turbo Dynamics, also chose the event for the UK debut their Moteurs Baudouin range, including a 31.8ltr V12 – 12 M26.3 Marine Diesel engine. The units were coated in a striking blue and attracted a lot of attention from visitors at the event.
