Heavy Seas Appointed Exclusive Castoldi Distributor in Spain and Portugal

We are expanding our marine propulsion solutions through a strategic agreement with Castoldi, a leading Italian manufacturer of waterjet propulsion systems. This partnership makes us the exclusive distributor of its entire range of propulsion systems in Spain and Portugal.

This agreement marks an important milestone in our company’s development and strengthens our marine engineering division, enabling us to incorporate new propulsion solutions into the services we offer our clients.

Through this partnership, we continue to expand our ability to meet the needs of yacht owners, captains, chief engineers, yacht management companies and shipyards, combining our technical expertise with the technology of an internationally recognised manufacturer.

 

Castoldi: Specialists in Waterjet Propulsion Systems

Castoldi is an Italian manufacturer specialising in the development and production of waterjet propulsion systems, used across a wide range of vessels and marine applications.

Unlike conventional propulsion systems that rely on external propellers, waterjet technology operates by drawing in water and expelling it at high velocity to generate the thrust required to propel a vessel.

Some of the main advantages this technology can offer include:

  • High manoeuvrability: Enables precise control of direction and thrust, particularly during certain manoeuvres.
  • Shallow-water navigation: As it does not require a conventional external propeller, it can be particularly suitable for vessels with specific draught requirements.
  • Protection of propulsion components: The system’s configuration reduces the exposure of propulsion components to certain external conditions.
  • Versatility: Provides solutions for a wide range of applications, from tenders and high-speed craft to commercial vessels.

Choosing a waterjet propulsion system depends on the characteristics of each vessel, its configuration and its intended use. For this reason, specialist technical advice is essential when evaluating the different propulsion options available.

 

Another Step Forward in Our Marine Engineering Expertise

Since our foundation in 2011, we have worked to provide comprehensive maintenance, repair and refit solutions for yachts and superyachts.

Based in Palma de Mallorca, one of the Mediterranean’s leading yachting hubs, we undertake projects throughout Spain and in other European markets.

Our team of more than 70 professionals brings together a wide range of technical specialisations, enabling us to handle everything from routine maintenance work to more complex projects.

Marine engineering is one of our core areas of expertise. Through this division, we provide engine diagnostics and repairs, mechanical maintenance, propulsion system services and vessel modernisation projects.

Becoming Castoldi’s exclusive distributor in Spain and Portugal represents another important step in the development of this division, expanding the technologies and solutions we can make available to our clients.

 

New Propulsion Solutions for Spain and Portugal

Through this partnership, we are adding Castoldi’s range of waterjet propulsion systems to our portfolio, strengthening our presence in the Spanish and Portuguese marine markets.

This agreement allows us to expand the options available for propulsion projects, equipment replacement and vessel modernisation, always taking into account the technical and operational requirements of each project.

It also provides an opportunity to further strengthen our relationships with marine industry professionals seeking specialised solutions and a team with proven experience in marine engineering and vessel maintenance.

 

Continuing to Move Forward Alongside Leading Manufacturers

At Heavy Seas, we understand that the evolution of the marine industry requires a combination of experience, technical knowledge and access to specialised technologies.

That is why we remain committed to building strategic partnerships with manufacturers that enable us to expand our capabilities and offer new solutions to our clients.

Our partnership with Castoldi is another step forward in this journey, reinforcing our commitment to developing specialised marine engineering services across the Mediterranean and the wider Iberian market.
