Modular crane barge Powered by OXE Diesel Outboards
Innovation meets utility in Lago Marine’s modular 40’ x 18’ cranebarge powered by twin OXE300s.
Modular crane barge Powered by OXE Diesel Outboards
Built with HDPE hull technology, the barge offers exceptional durability, impact resistance, and longevity - ideal for the toughest industrial marine environments. But the innovation doesn’t stop at materials, designed by Tim Greeson of TM Marine Services, this vessel can be disassembled, trucked across the country, and reassembled to handle demanding marine support operations anywhere. This allows operators to mobilize quickly, saving valuable time and cost compared to traditional heavy-lift barge transportation.
When fully assembled, the barge leverages PortaProducts brackets that lift the OXE outboards entirely clear of the water. This innovation minimizes saltwater corrosion andreduces electrolysis risk, extending the engines’ service life and loweringmaintenance costs. Both the industrial generator and the OXE outboards run onthe same diesel fuel supply, creating a seamless, efficient, and safe operating environment.
With a design weight of 33 000 lbs (14 969 kgs), this vesselisn’t just versatile - it’s a workhorse. Lago Marine’s crane barge is capableof supporting a wide range of operations, including:
· Diving and salvage
· Seawall and shoreline protection
· Setting navigation aids
· Marine construction and repair
· General utility support in demanding marineenvironments
By choosing OXE Diesel outboards, Lago Marine gains thepower, endurance, and fuel efficiency needed to deliver on challengingindustrial marine projects - all while meeting stringent safety andsustainability requirements.
The result? A vessel that redefines what’s possible in themarine support industry: tough, transportable, and powered by the world’sleading diesel outboards.
Oxe300
The most powerful engine in the OXE line up, the OXE300 is a bi-turbo configuration that provides its full 945 Nm of torque at the propeller already at 2250 RPM. The power and high torque of the marinized diesel block in the OXE300 proves for an enduring and relentless product, applicable in diverse settings as both a workhorse and a high-speed solution...

“Voodoo is probably one of the most fuel efficient power cats of this size in the world. I attribute that mostly to the OXE power plants and her efficient hull design. We usually average about 24 gallons per hour at our cruising speed of 18-22 knots…I would guess the fuel saving compared to the Yamaha 425 for this vessel over 4 years would be around $500k. We calculated about $150k per year savings. We are running even more trips since then so it could be even more…fuel costs are included in our price so the less fuel we burn the more money we make. OXE engines deliver high efficiency running compared to gas engines making my company far more successful.”
