Proud to contribute to sustainable ships of the future

Machinefabriek De Waal regularly appears in the media. This time, read all about the sustainable new Amadeus Saffier and Sardius crawler coasters, to which De Waal is proud to have contributed.

The Amadeus Saffier and Sardius have already appeared in the media several times; they are the first new-build ships to be equipped with VentoFoils from Econowind. They will sail with wind propulsion support. Machinefabriek De Waal is proud to have contributed to these sustainable coasters, which are equipped with high-tech flapper rudders, steering gear and propeller shaft installations from De Waal. Article in Maritiem MGZN, October 2024.

In the latest issue of Maritiem MGZN, De Waal tells more about these rudders. The upcoming special edition of the Scheepvaartkrant will also feature extensive coverage of these sustainable ships of the future, as well as other great products that De Waal has to offer.
