The purpose of the Hydro Spoiler is to optimise water flow towards the rudder. A spoiler is placed behind the propeller, exactly on the centreline. The curved blades catch the outflowing water of the propeller and bend it from a swirling into a straight-outgoing flow towards the rudder, making the outflow of the propeller water more equable. Smooth water flow towards the rudder results in reduced noise and vibration levels. The Hydro Spoiler improves the propulsion efficiency and speed performance of a vessel, and enhances the ship’s course-keeping capabilities. Continuous research and experience since the introduction of the Van der Velden® Hydro Spoiler in 1998 have proven that these refinements increase vessel efficiency up to 8%. At DMC, there are three types of spoilers to choose from: - HD-B, known as our “standard” spoiler. - XR-B, this type is designed with a bulb for resistance reduction. - XR-T, this type is designed with a bulb with streaming body to fill up the entire wakefield from the propeller. ADVANTAGES - Improved speed performance - Reduced noise and vibrations - Improved vessel efficiency up to 8% - Enhanced course-keeping capabilities - Optimised water flow towards the rudder

With the DL06, DL08, and DX12 engines from Hyundai, Vink diesel offers a suitable solution for applications operating above 1800 rpm. With engine speeds reaching up to 2100 rpm, Hyundai provides a perfect solution for one-to-one replacement of, for example, an existing bow thruster engine. A 12-cylinder Hyundai Stage V engine is currently under development.

It reduces biological fouling thanks to the copper anodes mounted under the box cooler that slowly dissolve by receiving an electrical current from a power supply. Creating an environment in which biological marine growth won’t develop and will just be flushed back out to sea. The copper ridden environment is only active for a limited time as these ions fall back to the stable cu++ which doesn’t harm the environment.
