Keep your boat working.

The vessels we keep running.
The MAN D-Series and Volvo Penta diesels we supply parts for power some of the hardest-working boats afloat. If you operate any of these, you're in the right place.

Offshore supply vessels
Servicing rigs and platforms far from port, where a failed pump or turbo can't wait days for a spare.

Tugs
Constant load and hard duty cycles. Cooling pumps and turbos earn their keep, and wear accordingly.

Fishing vessels
Weeks at sea on tight margins. We keep trawlers and netters running right through the season.

Workboats
Crew transfers, maintenance and harbour work. The everyday boats that simply have to start.

River barges
Long-haul inland freight on diesels that run for thousands of hours between stops.

Ferries & pilot boats
Fixed schedules and zero tolerance for downtime when passengers and crews are waiting.
