Premium Leisure Boat
[INQ. NO. 2410C01] Designed and manufactured by Bay Industrial since 1986, LodeStar is a leading brand in the leisure boat market known for its durability, weather resistance, and UV protection.
The boats are manufactured in its Korean and Chinese factories using state-of-the-art automated machinery, ensuring precision and consistency in production. Meeting strict CE and ISO standards, LodeStar boats are trusted worldwide. With LodeStar, Bay Industrial has successfully entered the international market, particularly in Europe.
Bay Industrial has also collaborated with world-renowned partners such as Mercury in the United States, Williams Jet Tenders in the UK, and Zodiac Nautic in France. As a result, Bay Industrial has designed and launched a wide range of inflatable boats and rigid inflatable boats.

Special Purpose Boats
The RAPTOR MP470, FR400, and Arancia A380 models are representative examples of high-performance, special-purpose boats. These specialized boats feature patented automatic high-pressure inflation technology, allowing full inflation within 30 to 60 seconds. This rapid deployment capability makes them ideal for emergency or high-risk operations.
Another advantage is that the RAPTOR can be equipped with special features such as underwater concealment, making it suitable for covert military missions. The utility of these special features has been recognized both domestically and internationally.
The RAPTOR MP470 won the “Product of the Year” award at the Korea International Boat Show in 2016 and 2019. It was also selected as the “Excellent Commercial Item” by the Ministry of National Defense of the Republic of Korea in 2016 and 2020.

Feel the Rhythm of KOREA in Incheon

https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

The newest addition to the Feel the Rhythm of KOREA series had some special guest stars! In addition to Ambiguous Dance Company, the video features members of the variety program “2 Days & 1 Night” as they dance their way around Incheon’s top attractions. Starting from Incheon International Airport, the main entry point for most tourists, the video’s showcases multiple fun locations to explore in this often overlooked city!

Incheon International Airport
The video starts out at Incheon International Airport. If you’ve ever been to Korea, chances are you started and ended your trip right here! Upon arrival, you might have even been as excited as the members of Ambiguous Dance Company and “2 Days & 1 Night,” even if you didn’t dance around the place like they did.
If you have time to kill at the airport, stop by the Korean Cultural Street or visit the Incheon Airport Oseongsan Observatory. The Korean Cultural Street is located within the airport and features a tile-roofed house and Mangyeongjeong Pavilion, with traditional crafts like pottery on display.
You’ll have to take a short bus ride to get to Oseongsan Observatory, but the view of the entire airport is worth it. Located 51.5 meters above sea level, you really grasp the fact that the airport is on an island, with the planes coming and going surrounded by the vast sea.

Ganghwa Anglican Church
The next place the dancers visit is Ganghwa Anglican Church. Built in November 1900, the church has remained unchanged since that time. It was the first church built in a traditional hanok style. While the interior features mostly Western elements, the exterior looks just like a building you would find at one of the royal palaces or even a Buddhist temple.
A great place to relax after exploring the church is Joyangbangjik. This café is located within a remodeled spinning factory, the oldest of its kind in the nation.
The café serves all kinds of coffee and other beverages, and is decorated both indoors and outdoors with antiques. You can even see the large concrete structures that were used for the weaving machines in the 1960s.
Additional attractions in the area of Ganghwa Anglican Church include the Goryeo Palace Site and Yongheunggung House. The Goryeo Palace Site was used as a place of refuge when Mongolia invaded during the Goryeo period. Yongheunggung House was the home of King Cheoljong (r. 1849-1863) before he was king. The house was built in a similar design to Yeongyeongdang Hall and Nakseonjae Hall of Changdeokgung Palace.

Incheon Art Platform
“2 Days & 1 Night” members DinDin and Moon Se-yoon make a funny appearance behind the dancers at Incheon Art Platform. Opened in September 2009, Incheon Art Platform is a cultural space located in a reclaimed construction building from the modern port-opening period.
Incheon Art Platform offers exhibitions and performance programs focusing on artists. The entire complex is filled with unique sculptures.
Incheon Art Platform is located around Haean-dong in Jung-gu, home to many cultural heritage buildings built after the port opening in 1883, mostly all built in the 1930s and 40s. Thanks to this unique vibe, the area has featured as a filming site for many Korean dramas like “Descendants of the Sun (2016)” and “Guardian: The Lonely and Great God (2016).”

Wolmido Island (Theme parks)
Wolmido Island is a wonderful setting for the dancers’ energetic moves, with lots of rides and carnival attractions.
The island is home to many amusement parks and leisure facilities, including Wolmi Theme Park, MyLand, Wolmi Land, and Beach Land. The most popular rides at these parks are the Viking ships and Disco Pang-Pang rides.
You can easily see everything along the 600-meter-long Wolmi Culture Street by riding on the Wolmi Sea Train. This monorail also offers outstanding views of the sea. If you want to spend longer gazing out at the horizon, visit one of the cafés or hoe (sliced raw fish) restaurants along the street here.
There are plenty of Viking ship rides in the area, but the ride at MyLand is famous across the nation as being the scariest! The ship goes up to the height of a two-story building at a 110 degree angle. They say after you ride the Super Viking, all other Viking ship rides will lose their thrill.

Songdo Central Park
“2 Days & 1 Night” member Ravi gets his moment to shine at Songdo Central Park. The park stands in harmony with the surrounding skyscrapers, many with unique architecture, just like Tri-Bowl within the park. The lake within the park uses all salt water pulled in from the surrounding ocean. There are plenty of walking trails throughout the park to enjoy all it has to offer, from the hanok village to hotels, restaurants, and experience facilities.
One of the more unique activities you can enjoy at Songdo Central Park is getting on the water taxi, as it travels up and down the lake. A round-trip course takes about 25 minutes and covers 3.6 kilometers.
For another fun water activity, try renting a canoe or kayak with a transparent floor! When the sun sets, you can also get in a moon boat, which light up for a special experience.

https://korean-machinery.com///inquiry

Recording 11th consecutive month of positive growth
Last month’s exports by Korea reached US$57.9 billion, continuing an 11-month upward trend. In particular, semiconductor exports achieved the highest performance ever in August, adding to the momentum. Cumulative exports to China surpassed those to the United States for the first time this year, becoming the largest export destination again.
Recently, the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy (MOTIE) announced that exports last month increased 11.4% year-on-year to $57.9 billion, while imports increased 6% to $54.07 billion. The positive trade balance thus reached $3.83 billion, continuing to show a surplus for 15 consecutive months.

Computer exports increased 183% to $1.5 billion, a triple-digit increase. Wireless communication device exports also increased by 54% to $1.8 billion.

Automobile exports decreased by 4.3% to $5.1 billion, however, due to the modernization of some companies’ production lines and the decrease in operating rates due to wage and group negotiations ― but ship exports increased by 80% to $2.8 billion, turning positive for the first time in three months.
By region, eight out of nine major markets showed favorable trends. The region with the largest exports by Korea was China, which recorded $11.4 billion ― up 7.9% due to the improved business conditions in the information and communication technology (IT) industry.
Exports to China reached $86.2 billion from January to August this year, surpassing exports to the United States during the same period, emerging as the largest export country.
Exports to the USA increased by 15.5% to $84.7 billion due to favorable market trends in IT items such as semiconductors and computers.
