Smarter marine Electrical Systems for Modern Cruising
Running a fully electric galley places new demands on a boat’s power system. Whether or not you’re installing Curio, Omega Marine helps sailors design and upgrade marine electrical systems that are efficient, safe, and tailored to life at sea.
With years of liveaboard experience — from UK canal boats to a 39-foot bluewater ketch — we’ve seen what works, what fails, and how to make yacht electrical systems reliable in real-world cruising conditions.
