Interceptors

The efficient way to trim and stabilise your boat

Award winning design

Our interceptors are made of composite materials for optimum performance, corrosion resistance and light weight. The Humphree interceptors have superior ability to add lift force to greatly reduce resistance in the water, add speed, improve acceleration and visibility at the helm. Humphree’s interceptors are available in many shapes and sizes. From our standardised X-Series to the heavy duty HLS-Series. Most of our interceptor models can be custom shaped to fit exactly to the hull.

X-Series

We are now introducing the new X-series interceptors. The new X-Series is intended mainly for boats from 25 up to 60 feet.

Four sizes, X300, X450, X600 and X750 are available, all with the powerful 50mm (2”) stroke needed for superior control of dynamic hull motions.

The X-Series delivers the same reliability and superior performance as the other Humphree interceptors but the X-Series range is limited to four standard sizes. The X-Series features the same control system, ultra-fast servo actuators and control panel. For boats with stern drive a special “13 degree” mounting plate is available for a perfect fit.

  • Available sizes: 300 – 750mm
  • Stroke length: 50mm
  • Mounting plates: 20mm composite or 20mm aluminium
  • Transom thickness:

Short shaft kit (standard),<80mm transom thickness.

Long shaft kit (option),<140mm transom thickness

  • Bureau Veritas approved through-hull design

H-Series

H-Series are available from 350 – 1500mm in width. H-Series characterizes a customizable interceptor. We can custom shape it for the hull and make it fit under your water jet, a perfect fit at the shine or make it follow the radius of the propeller tunnels, no matter how the hull has been designed there is always a solution.

  • Available sizes: 350 – 1500mm
  • Stroke length: 50mm
  • Mounting plates: 20mm composite or 25mm aluminium
  • Transom thickness:

Short shaft kit (standard),<80mm transom thickness.

Long shaft kit (option),<140mm transom thickness

  • Bureau Veritas approved through-hull design

 

 

HA-Series

HA-Series is our line of interceptors with an asymmetric placed servo unit. This interceptor can be used when the has to fit under a water jet or if preferred area of the transom is limited or when the inner structure on the inside of the transom does not allow for a centre placed servo. The HA-interceptor comes in sizes 500 – 1100mm and can be custom shaped for a perfect fit.

Available sizes:  HA500 – HA1100 (50mm stroke, asymmetric)

  • Available sizes: 500 – 1100mm
  • Stroke length: 50mm
  • Mounting plates: 20mm composite or 30mm aluminium
  • Transom thickness:

Short shaft kit (standard),<80mm transom thickness.

Long shaft kit (option),<140mm transom thickness

  • Bureau Veritas approved through-hull design

 

 

HE-Series

The HE-Series interceptors are designed for heavy duty use. With their powerful 75mm stroke length they will add 50% more lift force than the standard 50mm interceptors. The HE-interceptor comes in sizes 750 – 1500mm and can be custom shaped for a perfect fit.

  • Available sizes: 750 – 1500mm
  • Stroke length: 75mm
  • Mounting plates: 20mm composite or 30mm aluminium
  • Transom thickness:

Short shaft kit (standard),<80mm transom thickness.

Long shaft kit (option),<140mm transom thickness

  • Bureau Veritas approved through-hull design

HLS-Series

Our all-new HLS-Series are designed and built for the large and heavy planing vessels. With a mechanical high performing structure the HLS-interceptors blade has a powerful 110mm stroke length. The HLS interceptor is available from 800mm to 1500mm width.

  • Available size: 800mm – 1500mm
  • Stroke length: 110mm
  • Servo unit: SU530
  • Mounting plates: Integrated in interceptor structure
  • Transom thickness: 8-32mm (steel, aluminium)

Easier planing and stabilised ride

Interceptor placement on the boat transom

  • Resistance curve for planing with Humphree interceptors.
  • Normal resistance curve for planing.

Easy control with automatic systems

The HCS-5 system

The HCS-5 combines exceptional mechanical quality with electronic control including motion sensors and world class brushless servo motors to provide instant and exact response to the hull dynamics.

Adding the fine-tuned boat control options Automatic Trim, Automatic List, Coordinated Turn or Active Ride Control will result in optimum comfort and performance regardless if the captain is a seasoned expert or a less experienced operator.

All the units are connected with watertight cables with the servo motors positioned protected inside the hull. HCS-5 can easily be upgraded with more functions, interceptors and fins.

HCU500

The HCU500-series control units contains advanced sensors, calculating algorithms and works on 11 – 32 VDC. The control unit handles the system functions, controls the servo motors and powers the system. In a network with electrical fins, these are separately powered by 24VDC electricity.

CP502

CP502 is our new and advanced control panel – very easy to use – with a large colour display which is sunlight readable and therefore also suitable for outdoor installation, such as the flybridge. The control panel can change between day- and night mode and user selectable colour themes. CP502 is NMEA2000 certified which makes many installations easier. For service and support the control panel has an integrated Wi-Fi access point that enables remote access via your Internet connected device such as a mobile phone or computer.
