Hendy Power has been appointed as the UK distributor for Baudouin, a French manufacturer of marine and power generation diesel and gas engines.
The appointment has strengthened Hendy’s offering in the commercial marine power market.

The Baudouin range of engines provides the commercial marine market with engines particularly suited to fleet operators and boat builders looking to operate at high power for long-duty cycles such as offshore fishing, wind support vessels, tugs, large trawlers, and large car ferries.
Director of Hendy, Andy Smith said: “This is an important milestone for Hendy Power as we continue to expand our offering in the marine market.
“We are now working towards building a network of UK dealers who will be involved in the supply of these engines and parts to operators.”
Brand developer at Hendy, Bryan Ede is overseeing the dealer network project and is tasked with relaunching the range in the UK market.
He said: “The engines are well placed to support the expanding wind farm industry in particular which needs cost effective, durable and reliable engines for its support vessels.
“With Baudouin, we can now offer a complete range of engines with varying power ratings suitable for all duty cycles.”
