Superyacht Marketing Roadshow announced by Breed Media 

The world-renowned DAME Award 2023 was presented by Jury Chair Andre Hoek to the Oceanvolt HighPower ServoProp 25 at the commencement of the <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4374" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="METSTRADE (Company)">METSTRADE</a> show this morning. Nine products achieved wins in eight brand new categories this year, alongside an environmental design award, while 14 more received special mentions.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/293817/image/large-50297ac1769a17d58b728adde38ecb6c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/293817">Chair of the Jury, Andre Hoek reflected on the results, “The jury would like to thank everyone who entered this year’s DAME Awards. The efforts of companies who offer their products for such detailed scrutiny are always appreciated, and we are always mindful of the time, resources and passion required to bring each product to market. This year we shortlisted 53 out of 100 entries, the highest ratio of nominees since 2016. That is indicative of the quality we saw across a healthy mix of genuinely new concepts as well as fresh design ideas for existing gear that has been with us for many years.”First achieving the top spot in the propulsion &amp; dynamics category, Finnish company Oceanvolt went on to achieve the overall DAME 2023 Award for their HighPower ServoProp 25. This 25kW electric saildrive was commended by the jury as a masterfully conceived and engineered product that expands the standards for 45-70 ft sailboats by providing an extremely quiet option for electrification. Oceanvolt employed controllable pitch propeller technology, ensuring ultimate efficiency for propulsion and hydro generation. Notably, the HighPower ServoProp 25 is able to return up 5kW of power when the yacht sails at 10 knots.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/293816/image/large-a17e948f43e2f4d04b310e8fea8196cc.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/293816">Speaking exclusively to SuperYacht Times, Oceanvolt said: “We are ecstatic to be Category Winners and were completely surprised to also be announced as Overall Winners of the 2023 DAME Awards for our HighPower ServoProp 25 electric propulsion motor and hydro generator.”Read: <a href="https://www.superyachttimes.com/yacht-news/latest-products-and-unveilings-at-metstrade-2023" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="">A guide to some of the latest products and unveilings at METSTRADE 2023</a>“This achievement has truly been a team effort with every one of our Oceanvolt employees and partners sharing equally in the glory. The HighPower ServoProp 25 has been afforded this recognition as a clear indicator that the marine industry is rewarding the efforts that all companies are putting into developing a more environmentally friendly future.”<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/246359/image/large-afe9d9d180fe9f9397fcdf25fe3af89d.png" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/246359">Andre Hoek commented, “There were noticeably more entries this year supporting the boat electrification agenda, but it must not be forgotten that the drive towards net zero must influence all new products in the industry today. Improving the lifecycle impacts of marine equipment is an imperative for any design process. The environmental statements we request for each entry give reason to believe the industry is moving in that direction while also highlighting there is much more to do.”Zhik Seaboot 700 took the win in the personal equipment category, while Scanstrut ATMOS 12V Waterproof Built In Air Station achieved top spot for comfort and entertainment afloat, and Raymarine Alpha Performance Display System won the navigation and communication award. Electronic and electric systems saw Vimar Linea XT platform take the win, while Ronstan Orbit Winch and Harken Push/Pull Captive Reel Winch were joint winners under the deck equipment category. Hall Spars – LiMit Collar placed first in the security and safety aboard category and Spot Zero Mobile Pro Mini Water Purifier won the shoreside equipment and materials award. The environmental design award was given to Marservis EcoCube.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/249021/image/large-d86d86ec56c1a0e64613db72c4c5cb38.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/249021">“The DAME’s new categorisation structure for this year helped the jury to focus on the intended end purpose of all products. It also balanced the entry field more evenly, resulting in us being able to name worthy winners for all categories,” noted Andre Hoek.The DAME entrants raised €14,250 which will be donated to The Magenta Project, a passionate collective working towards greater equity and inclusion in sailing.
