        The most applied Retractable Propulsion System for Super Yachts

        Ship Motion successfully launched the patented Retractable Propulsion System for Super Yachts in 2012. Since then, many system improvements have been made to adapt the system to the needs of the customer. Today, the systems are available for Carbon and Aluminum yachts with racing to cruising ambitions. If you are looking for a well thought through, proven and reliable system with excellent performance, this is the product for your vessel. The retractable system consists of a standard product range and is tailor-made for your specific vessel and requirements. It also comes with a very advanced control system with many optional features.

        • High Performance and comfort levels
        • Lightest RPS on the market
        • Proven reliability
        • Class approved

        SY Visione: Equipped with Retractable Propulsion since 2012

        1 HIGH PERFORMANCE AND COMFORT LEVELS

        The Ship Motion RPS is known for excellent propulsion efficiency, resulting in smaller engines, fuel capacity, etc. to meet contract speeds. This results in enormous overall weight savings and therefore improved sailing performance. This super-efficient propulsion has low noise levels as a positive side effect.

        2 LIGHTEST RPS ON THE MARKET

        The RPS is by far the lightest on the market, without sacrificing the required strength. To limit the water that enters the wet-box, the system is equipped with an automatic purge system.

        3 PROVEN RELIABILITY

        With the largest market share, we have thousands of successful hours on the clock of the RPS systems. Reliability is a proven fact.

        4 CLASS APPROVED

        The Ship Motion RPS meets all class requirements for hull and machinery.

        5 SMALLEST OVERAL VOLUME

        Retractable Propulsion Systems are known to occupy considerable interior space. That’s why Ship Motion designed the system as compact as possible.

        6 REMOTE CONTROL SYSTEM

        The RPS comes with a remote control system that can be extended with all conceivable functions and interfaces. Ask us about the possibilities.
