Discover the peace and quiet in boating

The Aquadrive antivibration system will help you, and your crew, enjoy the peace and quiet in boating. By isolating the engine from the rest of your boat, noise and vibration are greatly reduced. Most installations result in a 50% or more reduction in cabin or cockpit noise and vibration. Aquadrive will also help to keep your driveline in good condition by minimising wear and tear on the transmission and cutlass bearings.

Aquadrive antivibration system creates the necessary conditions for a smoother running, quiet boat.

The Aquadrive System

With Aquadrive the engine can be installed in a horizontal position using soft and efficient mounts. Apart from easy installation and permanent alignment, this also leads to better space utilisation while dramatically reducing vibration and noise.

In traditional installations, the alignment of the propeller shaft to the engine has to be precise and subject to periodical maintenance. Stiff mounts transmit high levels of vibration to the hull, even when perfectly aligned.

Outstanding technology to improve boats worldwide

A. Soft engine mounts isolate engine from hull.

B. Constant Velocity (CV) driveshaft absorbs engine vibration and eliminates need for accurate alignment.

C. Thrust unit on load bearing hull section reduces stress on transmission and engine mounts. Prop pushes boat, not engine.
