You might know VETUS for industry-leading thruster technology. You have seen Maxwell’s powerful windlasses in an anchor locker or gleaming on the deck of a mothership. What you may not have known is that your exhaust system might have been designed, tested, and fabricated by VETUS, your boat might have yards of VETUS top-quality hoses throughout, all your hatches could be VETUS. You might never have thought to peruse the over 400-page catalog before now, but it is worth noting the breadth of manufacturing capabilities and system engineering expertise. You can download the whole thing from our website: Catalogue – VETUS
And we’re right here in the U.S, and always just a phone call away. Have an idea for utilizing a 48-volt system to tie together your thruster, windlass, and other power needs? Our engineers are experts and can steer your idea through the build process to successful implementation. Like the idea of being able to deploy your anchor with the touch of a button—while still be able to access it manually? Maxwell developed the retractable anchor arm at the request of a boat-builder and have made this custom application available to market.
You can see that innovation and others at the Miami International Boat Show, stop by booth MB 1514 in the Convention Center starting February 14. This year VETUS is celebrating the 60th year since our founding. Last year was VETUS Maxwell’s 50th in the U.S. while New Zealand based Maxwell Marine turned fifty in 2019. These years of experience are complemented and enhanced by our affiliation with over a century of hands-on innovation and sustainable development in ongoing collaboration with our parent company Yanmar.
Milestones matter: not in the sense of an arbitrary achievement, but rather as a testament to VETUS willingness to learn, adapt and innovate unceasingly—while continuing to uphold our values and commitments to delivering on our promises. Our promise is in VETUS’ mission statement: We engineer reliable onboard systems and back them up with our unparalleled global support network.
We have repeatedly surpassed our innovations in thruster technology year to year. We deliver windlasses that consistently over deliver on their targeted performance metrics. We regularly seek to simplify systems and insist they work together seamlessly—we make them communicate cooperatively. Stop by the booth and hear why our thruster technology led to our partnering with Yamaha, Mercury, Yanmar and Cummins/Glendinning to develop industry-leading joystick integrations.
Given the longevity of our team, we have a deep-rooted understanding of our industry needs and our products—all backed-up by service and support with authentic expertise and a willingness to go the extra mile—which we do with every phone call we get.
