Diesel outboards for fishing and aquaculture
Fuel-efficient, high-torque propulsion for daily operations at sea
Built for tough, daily use
Across Asia Pacific and the Middle East, fishing and aquaculture play a vital role in the economy and local livelihoods. From oyster farms in South Korea to offshore fishing vessels in the Arabian Gulf, Cox diesel outboards deliver the power, efficiency and endurance required for professional operations at sea.
Fishing and aquaculture vessels often operate in remote or open-water environments for long hours – conditions where reliability is critical. Cox Marine’s V8 diesel outboard provides high torque at low RPM, allowing crews to work efficiently even under heavy load or in choppy seas.
With growing demand in key regional markets such as South Korea, Indonesia and the UAE, Cox engines are becoming a trusted solution for operators seeking a cleaner, longer-lasting alternative to petrol outboards.
Why fishing and aquaculture operators choose Cox
Longer range, fewer refuels
Up to 30% greater fuel efficiency than petrol engines means vessels can travel further and operate longer – ideal for long fishing runs or tending to multiple aquaculture sites in one trip.
High torque for heavy loads
Whether hauling gear, nets or farm equipment, Cox outboards deliver smooth, powerful propulsion that gets the job done with control and confidence.
Engineered for dependability
With extended service intervals and a rugged marine build, The V8 is designed to withstand the rigours of daily commercial use in harsh sea environments.
Lower emissions, cleaner seas
Certified to EPA Tier 3, RCD II and IMO II standards, Cox diesel outboards support responsible marine practices and future-ready operations.
Supporting sustainable marine industries
Cox Marine is already working with operators across the region to modernise their fleets with safe, efficient and environmentally conscious propulsion. In South Korea, our outboards are helping drive the growth of seaweed farming and sustainable aquaculture, while in the Middle East, crews are using Cox engines for small-scale commercial fishing.
