Dear Investor to Investor Reader,
I am pleased to present to I2I Readers that Rotary Power International, Inc. (OTC:BB RPIN) has released today that Mr. Ronald G. McKeown, President and CEO of Rotary Power International, Inc. (“RPI”) and William Hansen, President and CEO of SAFE Boats International, LLC (“SAFE Boats”) jointly announced today the successful demonstration of RPI’s first prototype Series 70 250 HP Rotary Diesel Fueled Marine Engine.
In the press release attached, there is a lot more indicated. On November 20, 2001, Rotary Power International, Inc. announced the first of three prototype engines was delivered to SAFE Boats International, LLC. That press release further states: “Assuming successful demonstration of the three engines, Safeboats has agreed in the letter of intent to purchase up to 150 of RPI’s 70 Series marine rotary engines for delivery within 18 to 24 months thereafter.”
Today’s press release indicates the testing of the second engine was an unqualified success. Mr. Hansen of SAFE Boats states: “ SAFE Boats wants to be the first boat manufacturer to purchase RPI’s initial production engines next year. Our commitment is to provide our customers with the choice of one of the best marine diesel applications in the market place.” Previous to this quote, Mr. Hansen states that SAFE Boats “has expanded its production capabilities to accommodate annual requirements for as many as 200 diesel engines per year valued at up to $4,500,000.”
Also stated is that another prototype engine will be demonstrated in a boat provided by a major shareholder in New Jersey in a few weeks. Then the boat will be shipped to Florida for further demonstration and testing. After which, it will be displayed in the boat show in Florida in October.
Under development is the 1000 HP Series 580 2 rotor diesel fueled engine. This large engine is being developed for both the marine industry and power generation market. Testing will commence this fall.

Rotary Power International, Inc. and SAFE Boats International, LLC Announce Successful Demonstration of the First Rotary Diesel Marine Engine
Wood-Ridge, New Jersey, Monday, July 15, 2002 – Mr. Ronald G. McKeown, President and CEO of Rotary Power International, Inc. (“RPI”) and William Hansen, President and CEO of SAFE Boats International, LLC (“SAFE Boats”) jointly announced today the successful demonstration of RPI’s first prototype Series 70 250 HP Rotary Diesel Fueled Marine Engine.
Mr. McKeown stated “The initial sea testing of the world’s only 250 horsepower (HP) marine diesel fueled rotary engine was deemed an unqualified success by both RPI and SAFE Boats reaching speeds of over 40 miles per hour in a 32 foot prototype boat hull being tested for the U.S. Coast Guard.
The Series 70 250 HP marinized diesel fueled rotary engine was first delivered to SAFE Boats in November, 2001 and it received a great deal of attention at the Seattle Boat Show held this year in January. The sea test results are being watched very closely by the marine industry worldwide. The small size, low vibration, light weight to horsepower diesel fueled rotary engine can bring about a new trend in boat manufacturing”.
Mr. Hansen stated that, “This could be the technology of the future. Our boats have proven to be the overwhelming choice of agencies such as the U.S. Coast Guard, Navy and other law enforcement agencies for their fleets. As a result of increased purchase orders, SAFE Boats International has expanded its production capabilities to accommodate annual requirements for as many as 200 diesel engines per year valued at up to $4,500,000. The benefit of SAFE Boats and other vessel manufacturers utilizing diesel engines is the power to weight ratio of the rotary engine.
SAFE Boats wants to be the first boat manufacturer to purchase RPI’s initial production engines next year. Our commitment is to provide our customers with the choice of one of the best marine diesel applications in the market place.”
Gary LaBouff, RPI’s Vice President of Engineering and former Engineering Manager of John Deere Technologies’ Rotary Engine Division stated, “This creates many new boat hull design options and may enable boat builders to exceed the size and speed restrictions of existing technology. The engine’s simplicity and few moving parts will allow for reduced maintenance and higher reliability. This prototype engine is the culmination of many years work at RPI and its predecessor John Deere, and is superior to any engine of this size produced in the past.
RPI’s plans are to deliver an upgraded Series 70 two (2) rotor production engine to SAFE Boats this coming fall for further testing in a 17 foot jet drive boat. Production of the Series 70 250 HP engines could occur as early as next year. RPI intends to begin field testing of the Series 70 four (4) rotor 500 HP version of the engine in the spring of 2003”.
Gary LaBouff further stated, “Within the next few weeks RPI will be demonstrating a prototype engine in a 24 foot boat in New Jersey, provided by one of our major shareholders. At the completion of this demonstration, the engine will be sent to Fort Lauderdale for demonstration and further testing prior to being placed on display in the October boat show in Florida.”
Also, underway in New Jersey is the development of a Series 580 two (2) rotor 1000 HP diesel fueled prototype development engine. This effort to provide a 1000 HP diesel fueled rotary engine for the marine and power generation markets is being led by John Mack, RPI’s Vice President and Chief Engineer. Plans call for the testing of this engine early this fall.
SAFE Boats is known worldwide for its exclusive 11 to 50 foot long full-sided foam stabilized hydrodynamic hulled watercraft. More information can be found on its website at: safeboats.com.
