Diesel outboard motor manufacturer Cox Marine will demonstrate an Intrepid 345 Nomad, powered by twin Cox CXO300 engines at the largest in-water boat show in the world running from 26 - 30 2022. The Intrepid is owned by Cox Marine's Florida- based distributor, Ring Power.

Marking the importance of this event as Cox Marine enters a period of high growth in the US market, visitors to stand number 1211 will have access to a substantial team of diesel outboard propulsion specialists and regional representatives.

Gavin Wesson Chief Executive Officer will be on hand to supply the industry and media with the latest information regarding long term business strategy for Cox. Heinz Stalhammar Chief Engineer will be the go-to expert on the CXO300's technical product performance and innovation, while Doug Ross and David Gilbert will ably handle enquiries concerning the distributor network and sales teams.

Appointed earlier this year and based in South Florida, Doug Ross is proud to represent this innovative manufacturer at his local show: "My mission at Cox Marine is to drive the narrative of new clean technology versus the outgoing two and four stroke technology and to install Cox Marine as the standard in high performance diesel power, meeting and surpassing environmental standards. I look forward to providing stand visitors with propulsion solutions for a North American market where diesel outboards seem to make more sense by the day."

"The CXO300 is set to improve the marine industry with convenient and responsible technology, offering reduced emissions, better fuel economy, increased safety and high performance. With rising costs of fuel the recreational market will benefit from the Total Cost of Ownership and reliability. Many parts of North America have a short boating season, so boat owners do not want to spend time on maintenance and repairs. Gasoline is also becoming increasingly difficult to come buy dockside."

Offering a high-performance solution designed to surpass emission targets, Cox Marine will be highlighting the green benefits of the 300hp CXO300 alongside a range of other advantages including fuel efficiency, fuel storage safety, reliability, high peak torque, and smooth and quiet operation.

The engine produces 20-35% less CO2 emissions than comparable gasoline outboards, contributing to global efforts to protect natural environments.

Delivering 479lb.ft torque at 2250-3000rpm and up to 30% better fuel efficiency compared to a 300hp gasoline outboard, the CXO300 offers a service life that is three times the average outboard.

In twin engine 600hp configuration the Ring Power craft Intrepid 34 represents a near perfect showcase package for the CXO300 continues Doug Ross: "This capable center console design with over 900 lb.ft of torque on tap would be a perfect package for the South Florida boating environment where cruising distances can be large and range is king."

The boat is aimed at the yacht tender segment, but it is a performance craft as well as an effective people and load hauler. The stepped hull delivers a top speed of over 50 knots under twin diesel power, all packaged up in a luxury tender built to yacht finish.

Cox distributor Ring Power has undertaken some detailed, real-world comparison testing of this hull with a variety of CXO300 configurations against a variety of gasoline engines and configurations. While the diesels return better fuel consumption at all speeds, improvements are most noticeable at the everyday speeds. For example, at 35mph, a comfortable open water cruising speed, the CXO300s rev at 3000rpm burning 19 gallons per hour, where the comparison 300hp gasoline engines rev at 4000rpm burning 23.5 gallons per hour. Further data covering the entire speed range and a range of engine configurations is available in the attached PDF documents.

Supported by a network over 30 distributors covering more than 100 territories, the CXO300 outboard engine is available to order across the globe.
