The world’s most powerful V8 diesel outboard family is launched along with Cox Marine’s latest campaign, ‘Here’s to the Pioneers’.

This campaign identifies inspirational individuals from the past and present who have created the kind of “Hell, Yeah!” moments for which Cox Marine is increasingly known.

It marks the proud introduction of the latest addition to the Cox Marine product line-up, a 350-horsepower variant of their flagship V8 outboard.

Gavin Wesson, Chief Executive Officer of Cox Marine, said, “After reflecting on our mission to break new technological and engineering ground in the marine sector, ‘Here’s to the Pioneers’ is a fitting celebration of those that demonstrate ingenuity, dedication and vision.”

The British outboard manufacturer Cox Marine was co-founded by David Cox, who firmly believed that the days of unsafe gasoline outboards were numbered.

Wesson adds, “Believing there had to be a better way was the thought that inspired our pioneering journey to develop a lightweight outboard powered by alternative fuel options to gasoline that meant not having to compromise on what is important.”

“The launch of our first product, the Cox Marine 300 – a 4.4 litre, twin-turbo, 300-horsepower V8, made that vision a reality.
“Deciding to design our outboard from a blank sheet of paper allowed us to push ourselves ahead, creating a platform that enables further growth, development, and, more importantly… serious power!”

With that, Cox Marine introduces the newest member of its product line-up, the Cox Marine 350, the latest in The V8 family - an outboard that sets new standards in fuel economy, power delivery and safety.

Wesson adds, “The new 350 allows us to power higher-displacement vessels efficiently across recreational and commercial sectors, enabling us to work with new customers and enhance our from-factory offering with existing partners.

“Building on our tried-and-tested V8 architecture, the Cox Marine 350 is a testament to the capability of this platform, the technology within and its growth potential.”

With an increased turbo capacity, among other alterations to the entry-level option in the power range, the Cox Marine 300, this cutting-edge variant sets a new norm in what we should all expect from our marine propulsion units: an outboard that closes the gap to gasoline outboards more than any other.

Already proving its performance credentials, the Cox Marine 350 outboard propelled Cox Marine forward in breaking its speed record, powered by alternative fuels, in October last year.

Adam Gurr, Cox Marine’s Product Director, notes, “The creation of the V8 represented the start of a new generation of outboard technology, offering the only alternative propulsion solution purpose-built for the marine industry.

“The V8 meets the understandably increasing demand for a propulsion option that provides equal performance levels, convenience, time, and economy.”

Vice President of Ring Power’s Cox Marine Division, Pat Bucci, is excited to add the 350. “The U.S. leisure market is always seeking maximum torque and range. The 350 delivers that and more. I know our customers will be queuing up to experience their own “Hell, Yeah!” moments thanks to the 350.”

The launch of the Cox Marine 350 marks the next chapter in Cox Marine’s ambition for cleaner, safer seas for everyone.
