OXE Diesel News
Diesel outboards on the Atchafalaya River
Back in March, David LeBlanc, regional sales director for Diesel Outboards, invited me aboard the 42'x13' multipurpose workboat Miss Ida, part of TK Boat Rentals’ fleet, to check out the performance of the twin Oxe 200-hp diesel outboards hanging from the boat’s stern. It was the end of April before we could get our schedules to mesh, and we made plans for a ride along. It happened that three people from Diversified Communications, our main/Maine office in Portland, were scheduled to come down for the Offshore Marine Service Association (OMSA) golf tournament on May 1. So, I suggested that we schedule the ride along for that week, if possible. Well, LeBlanc made it happen.

Full steam ahead
The Gåsø Høvding, which is equipped to transport large volumes of fish as well as carrying out delousing, is indicative of one trend in the vessels being built to service aquaculture: size. Farm units themselves are becoming ever more ambitious in terms of volume, and the vessels that serve them have had to follow suit. Fuel efficiency was also a key consideration for Shetland-based Flugga Boats, which recently built six workboats for Grieg Seafood. The boats – which are made of aluminium with a high density polyethylene (HDPE) collar – are fitted with OXE diesel outboard engines, which combine economy with reliability and endurance. The OXE outboards not only save on fuel but extend endurance.
Power, durability and economy
One company is changing the outboard market by lowering emissions and costs. Nature is a force of its own, and to operate within it requires both trust in onboard crew, but also trust in the equipment used. More importantly, commercial users in aquaculture depend on their gear to ensure that they can perform their daily operations. OXE Marine AB, are the innovators behind OXE Diesel, a diesel outboard developed specifically for commercial users. OXE Diesel combines the reliability and endurance of marine inboards with the flexibility and agility of outboard engines.
Strong and sustainable
Flugga Boats, based in Shetland, has focused on sustainability, safety and useability to create workboats that are efficient and practical. The company has built six boats for Grieg Seafood, four with a forward cabin and two with an open aft cuddy. The boats use OXE diesel outboards which are remarkably fuel-efficient. Farm operators rate the workboats highly for their safety, seakeeping and comfort. They are also pleased with the boats’ versatility and low maintenance costs.
