Dockmate collaborates with MOLABO

Boortmeerbeek, Belgium– Dockmate, the leading manufacturer of advanced wireless remote controls for yachts, announced today its collaboration with MOLABO, innovator in safe-to-touch low-voltage electric propulsion systems.

The award-winning MOLABO inboard and outboard solutions incorporate components such as batteries, charger, controllers, motor and throttle all in one easy-to-install system, which is ideal for integration with the Dockmate system.

“After a number of recent exciting announcements introducing new features for our highly regarded Dockmate system, such as DPS V2, we are thrilled to collaborate with MOLABO to give even greater functionality and flexibility to customers,” said Dirk Illegems, president, Dockmate. “We know that boaters that embrace the high-powered, safe and environmentally friendly MOLABO electric propulsion will appreciate the added capabilities of Dockmate products giving captains proportional control of the MOLABO propulsion system from anywhere on the vessel.”

Since its foundation in 2016, MOLABO has developed from a visionary idea at the University of the Federal Armed Forces in Munich into an innovation leader for electric motors. What sets MOLABO apart is its focus on touch-safe high-performance drives that do not require complex high-voltage safety measures, even at outputs of 50 kW. Thanks to this technology, MOLABO has made a name for itself in the marine industries with numerous awards.

When using a Dockmate® remote, that was charged to 100%, it takes up to 3 hours of constant use (remote actively communicating with the Receiver) to deplete the battery. This translates to a few very difficult and/or long docking manoeuvres, or lasts at least 15 docking manoeuvres of approximately 10 minutes.

During our test charging a Dockmate® remote from empty to completely full takes up to 3 hours. In practice we’ve observed a typical charging time for a Dockmate® remote of 20 to 40 min. For boaters using our latest Dockmate® Cradle, their Dockmate® remote is virtually always charged up and ready for use.
