Ferries and High Speed Craft

VEEM supplies many of the worlds’ leading ferry builders, providing both product and engineering design solutions. Propellers, shaft-lines, and ride control are all available as part of a package. A package solution from VEEM ensures component compatibility, accurate assembly and operational simplicity. VEEM can supply shaft-line components to suit any vessel size, giving ferry builders a one-stop-shop for propulsion systems.

Propellers for this market require customized designs to ensure maximum performance. Base propeller designs suitable to conventional ferry applications are created from the VEEMStar-C. This design operates successfully on ferries constructed by prominent builders around the world.

Manufacturing - light years ahead

Bespoke Design

Every VEEM propeller is engineered to match the exact needs of each vessel. Our customised designs draw on decades of practical insight, advanced CFD and FEA capability, and a dedicated team of highly skilled marine propulsion specialists with real-world experience.

Absolutely Identical

Our manufacturing technology ensures propellers are cast and machined to micrometre accuracy, enabling identical replacements and perfectly matched left–right sets with no performance drift across vessel series.

Fully CNC Machined

VEEM propellers are 100% 5-axis CNC-machined to hair-thickness accuracy over every surface, from boss to blade tip, unlike semi-CNC alternatives. This guarantees perfect form, stability, and repeatable high-performance hydrodynamics. Learn more about VEEM vs Class 1 & S-Class >

In-House Alloying

VEEM is one of the very few propeller manufacturers that alloys all metals in-house. This ensures total control over material chemistry, consistent quality, and optimal strength to resist cavitation, corrosion, and fatigue.

Decades of Data

Every propeller benefits from VEEM’s decades of sea-trial data, hydrodynamic research, CFD/FEA validation, and continuous refinement—delivering industry-leading efficiency, smoothness, and thrust performance.

Tested. Witnessed. Verified.

Our performance numbers are backed by sea trials independently witnessed by Lloyd’s Register, with efficiency and speed improvements verified under controlled test conditions. Testing compared the VEEM Extreme propellers, VEEM Nibral propellers, and the VEEM Extreme flow-aligned rudder against industry-standard propulsion systems, including a Class 1 finished propeller and flat-plate rudder.
