We are excited to announce that TSD SURFACE DRIVE SYSTEM, a new propulsion solutions provider, will be making its international debut at the renowned METSTRADE International Marine Equipment Trade Show. This highly anticipated event will take place from November 19th to 21st, 2024, in the Netherland

SD Surface Drive, Cummins China, and Haizhizhou Shipyard have successfully collaborated to introduce a groundbreaking 160-horsepower surface drive propulsion solution, marking a significant advancement in efficient, high-speed maritime propulsion. The newly developed test vessel showcases the latest

Propellers play a crucial role in a vessel’s performance, efficiency, and maneuverability. The right propeller design can dramatically affect a ship’s fuel consumption, speed, handling, and overall functionality. However, determining which propeller design is the “best” depends on several factors in

Marine propulsion systems are integral to the performance, maneuverability, and efficiency of boats and ships. Among the various types available, Z-drives, V-drives, and surface drives are widely used for different applications, each offering unique benefits and limitations. This article provides an

When you think of steering a ship, the rudder is likely the first thing that comes to mind. However, not all vessels rely on rudders for navigation. Various innovative technologies enable ships to maneuver effectively without traditional rudders. This article will discuss how ships can turn using th

Boat Propellers

Why Don’t More Boats Have Jet Drives Rather Than Prop Drives?IntroductionBoating enthusiasts often face the dilemma of choosing between jet drives and propeller drives. While jet drives offer certain advantages, they are not as widespread as propeller drives. This blog will delve into the reasons wh

IntroductionCavitation, a crucial topic in fluid dynamics, significantly impacts propulsion systems, particularly surface drive systems. While these systems are designed to be less susceptible to cavitation, certain conditions, such as high-speed operation or improper design, can still induce cavita

TSD SURFACE DRIVE SYSTEM is pleased to announce that our loyal customer, a company based in Thailand, has once again chosen our surface drive systems to support their business expansion. Following the purchase of two sets of the BG750 model last year, the customer repurchased five sets of the BH750

1.Enhanced Speed: Surface drive systems offer unparalleled speed capabilities compared to traditional propulsion methods. By minimizing underwater drag and maximizing propulsive efficiency, surface drives propel vessels to higher speeds, reducing transit times and increasing operational efficiency.2
