Coverage of the METS 2025 marine equipment trade show in Amsterdam highlights new products across propulsion, safety, navigation, and deck hardware.

Yanmar's new electric inboard motor, available from 7 to 15 kW on a 48-volt system, is notably compact and fits the same engine bed as a diesel, allowing manufacturers to offer either option. Oceanvolt-style regeneration is supported. The DAME Award overall winner is a redesigned inflatable lifejacket with buoyancy added at the back, keeping the wearer's head higher in the water. Raymarine's new wind sensor integrates motion compensation internally, eliminating the need for a separate processor to correct mast-movement errors. Garmin shows a compact rigging-mounted camera; the former Oscar collision-avoidance AI system is rebranded CI-AI. Digital Yacht introduces a MOB button that transmits AIS position data to the chartplotter on a three-second press, and a new high-accuracy GPS receiver called OneFix that reads multiple frequencies. ACR's electronic distress flare uses LEDs instead of pyrotechnics. SeaDrive of Tønsberg shows a towed generator for large boats. Mad InTech's IMOCA autopilot AI is adapted for production boats. Carve's new clutch/rope clutch targets mid-range boats at lower cost. Nordsedge wins the materials category for a laminate sail made from recycled polyester and bio-based Dyneema. Webasto's SlimFit isotherm refrigeration unit is designed to save space in existing cooler boxes.
