A Mornington marine business with a long history
Luxfords' story starts in the late 1940s, when pattern-maker Bob Luxford opened an engineering workshop in Springvale, Victoria. Luxfords Marine followed in 1963, and the business has supplied marine products to Victorian boat owners, builders and repairers ever since.
Today Luxfords Marine Industrial Solutions is based at 2/19 Bennetts Road, Mornington, a few minutes from Mornington Pier. We're the authorised distributor for VETUS in Victoria, which means genuine VETUS product and a direct line to VETUS-Maxwell when a question needs the factory.
For the rest of what we do, including engines, steering, shaft seals and anodes, visit luxfords.com.au.
Where our numbers come from
Specs from the catalogue
Every model, thrust figure, tunnel size, runtime and battery minimum comes from the VETUS Catalogue 2026-2027.
VETUS's own sizing method
The size calculator follows the method VETUS publishes, checked against VETUS's worked example.
Sources on every guide
Our joystick integration pages list their sources and attribute manufacturer claims to the manufacturer.
Calculator results are guidance. Before you buy, someone from Luxfords checks the thrust, tunnel, battery and panel against your actual boat. If you spot something on this site that's out of date, please let us know.
