Thoughtful engineering is often found in the details.

With a focus on performance, efficiency and contemporary design, the RAD 40 has been created to deliver a seamless experience on the water while complementing the vessels it powers.

Built with purpose. Designed with pride.

Here's a look at what the team has been up to this month at RAD.

July highlights:
> Took part in the SWRDSC at BattleLab
> Secured ÂŁ4.4 million in funding to accelerate the commercialisation of our autonomous marine technologies
> Paddy and Rudi commissioned two patrol vessels in Athens, Greece
> Welcomed Sean Wilson as US Sales Manager to support our expansion in the region

Thanks to everyone across the team for another busy and successful month.

Stay tuned for more updates throughout August.

What if protecting our seas started with making them quieter?

This , we're reflecting on the role technology can play in supporting healthier marine environments.

Working alongside , we supported research comparing a conventional outboard with a RAD electric outboard. The findings highlighted the potential for electric propulsion to significantly reduce underwater noise, helping to lessen disturbance beneath the surface.

At RAD, we're proud to be developing propulsion systems that don't just improve how vessels move through the water, but how they interact with the environment around them.

If you're exploring ways to reduce your fleet's impact above and below the waterline, we'd love to start the conversation. Get in touch via the link in our bio.

Just over six months ago, we opened RAD's US division in Charleston, South Carolina 🇺🇸

In a short space of time, the team has helped strengthen our presence across North America, supporting customers and accelerating the adoption of next-generation electric marine propulsion.

As we continue to grow, we're delighted to welcome Sean Wilson to the team as Sales Manager.

Sean's appointment marks another exciting step in our US journey as we continue to expand our reach and support the transition to cleaner, more efficient marine propulsion.

Welcome aboard, Sean. We're looking forward to seeing the impact you'll make as we continue to grow across the US market.

That's a wrap on another successful month for RAD!

Here are a few highlights from the past month:
> Todd Duncan took to the stage at Advanced Maritime Technology Expo & Conference to discuss what closes the deal on maritime electrification
> Golden Arrow Marine showcased its Autonomous Water Craft at Seawork, powered by AXON.
> Our CEO, Dan Hook, represented RAD at Seawork 2026, speaking at the "Propulsion in Practice: Matching Systems to Operations" panel.

Stay tuned for more updates throughout July.

A great example of engineering meeting environmental responsibility.

Natural Habitat Adventures operates in one of the world’s most protected environments, the Galápagos National Park, and needed a solution that would allow them to use the RAD 40 while safeguarding the surrounding ecosystem.

The challenge:
The RAD 40 wasn’t originally designed with a prop guard, but adding one was essential for this application.

The solution:
Working closely with BHFabrications we designed and manufactured a bespoke prop guard using A4 stainless steel, built to withstand harsh marine conditions without compromising on performance.

After testing, we’ve proven the RAD 40 can still deliver exactly what’s needed, now with an added layer of environmental consideration.

A smart, practical adaptation that opens up new possibilities for use in sensitive environments.

Seawork last week was a great opportunity to reconnect with the industry and see the pace of innovation first-hand.

Our CEO Dan Hook joined the panel on “Propulsion in Practice: Matching Systems to Operations”, sharing practical insight into how propulsion choices are evolving across real-world applications.

It was also brilliant to see Golden Arrow Marine showcasing its Autonomous Water Craft (AWC), powered by AXON, highlighting the growing momentum behind autonomous solutions.

Thanks to everyone who stopped by to connect with the RAD team.
