For maximum on-board comfort: propulsion, stabilizing and maneuvering systems for yachts
Comfort on board is one of the most important requirements that owners of yachts demand of their vessels. This also applies to the propulsion and maneuvering systems, which should operate as quietly as possible, for example. However, the electric Voith Schneider Propeller (eVSP) does not only have this property – its unique integrated roll stabilization (VRS) makes life on board even more convenient. Also the propulsion technologies such as Voith Inline Thruster (VIT) or the Voith Inline Propulsor (VIP) are the basis for maximum on-board comfort.
Yachts with electric Voith Schneider Propeller (eVSP)
The electric Voith Schneider Propeller (eVSP) combines all advantages of the VSP with the electric motor of the Voith Inline Thruster. He achives maximum thrust in all directions – infinitely variable and with maximum precision.
- Provide a high degree of comfort for owners, guests and crew.
- Are highly maneuverable and ideally suited for “electronic anchoring”.
- Are environmentally friendly and operate with low noise emissions and minimal energy consumption.
- Require little maintenance due to their low-speed operation and robust design.

Yachts with Voith Linear Jet (VLJ)
Thanks to its constantly high efficiency, the Voith Linear Jet (VLJ) offers an excellent solution especially for ships with a mixed-use profile ranging between slow and fast speeds. Due to its design, the propulsion system is also distinguished by robustness, low noise emissions and ease of maintenance.
- Offer an excellent solution, especially for ferries, thanks to its consistently high efficiency and mixed-use profile ranging between slow and fast speeds.
- Boast a propulsion system characterized by robustness, low noise emissions and ease of maintenance. .

Yachts with Voith Inline Thruster (VIT) and Voith Inline Propulsor (VIP)
Exceptionally low noise and fast responsiveness to steering commands – these are the strengths of the Voith Inline Thruster (VIT) and Voith Inline Propulsor (VIP). These propulsion systems offer precise maneuverability and high reliability with minimal space requirements.
- Guarantee a comfortable stay and rest for passengers and crew due to extremely low noise and vibration emissions of the VIT and VIP.
- Provide freedom for newly built and retrofit designs due to high compactness and efficiency of the unit with rim drive technology, without gearbox, shaft and external cooling.

Motion control for yachts and leisure boats with the electric Voith Schneider Propeller (eVSP)
The powerful, directly integrated electric motor (permanent magnet motor) delivers high torque and fast response, without any gears. It thus ensures a more direct and almost loss-free conversion of the electrical drive power into thrust and keeps noise-emissions to a minimum.
