The Trump administration has announced that it wants to build a new class of battleships. But this is just one element of the Golden Fleet –a larger program of naval reform aimed at a major transformation of the US Navy and its strategy.

Helix builds some of the most power-dense electric motors in the world. Now it's working to springboard that compact, power-packed design into a marine pod drive ecosystem it believes will help change the face of everyday boating.

Rolls-Royce is ditching diesel for methanol with its new maritime engine, described as the world's first high-speed marine engine in its performance class to operate exclusively on pure wood alcohol for a potentially CO₂-neutral drivetrain.

Imagine an oversized claw machine at an arcade, but instead of trying to grab cheap toys, your prize is the assortment of waste that sinks to the bottom of the sea. That's essentially what an autonomous robot has been doing at Marseille recently.

Sharrow Engineering has dedicated much of 2025 to expanding its US production base for its innovative looped propellers. At the same time, it's putting resources into jumpstarting the next era of technological breakthroughs.

Remigo launched its slim, portable e-outboard in the US just a few weeks back, and now it's adding a powerful accessory to the lineup. The new RemigoOne remote control lets the small e-boat captain control the throttle from anywhere on the vessel.

A hammock that lets a dozen or so people chill out and relax ... on cool, crystal-clear water? Count us in. It's the new Bote Hangout Water Hammock 15, and it brings a few innovations that make a day on the water even more enjoyable.

Gori folding propellers collapse to cut drag when under sail, then open up the instant the motor drive kicks on. The new tri-blade Gori Hybrid Propeller adds a third option, keeping the propeller open while sailing for energy regeneration.

Quite similar to the ePropulsion eLite but bigger and more powerful, the RemigoOne is a hassle-free portable electric outboard built for fast, easy transport to and from the water. The push-button e-drive recently made the trip over to the US market.

Located on the Red Sea, the Port of Neom has transformed since launching in August 2022. Part of Saudi Arabia’s NEOM project, it sits within Oxagon, a sustainable, high-tech industrial port city designed for innovation and global trade.

Sharrow Marine has been working to disrupt the marine industry with a reimagined propeller it calls the "future of propulsion." That future should come a little faster with the launch of the new MX-A, a more affordable, small outboard-friendly prop.
