Following the demise of Out Board Electronics Ltd, which entered into voluntary liquidation in November 2001, the ‘assets, name and goodwill’ of the company have been purchased from the liquidators by the company’s original founder and inventor of TiMax, Robin Whittaker, and former commercial director, Dave Haydon.

Whittaker and Haydon have incorporated a new company called Sheriff Technology Ltd, which will trade under the ‘Out Board’ name. The new company will focus its core business on TiMax and its applications, as well as future peripheral and related audio and media technology development and marketing. The company is establishing manufacturing and marketing joint-ventures in chain-hoist motor control, PAT testing and AC distro in order to maintain and develop market support and growth in these technology sectors.

For its core audio control products sector, the company has entered into a UK manufacturing partnership with a division of Solid State Logic (SSL) to enable the ongoing supply of TiMax Rack Systems and TiMax ImageMakers to the pro audio marketplace. Systems are available for delivery now, and the company intends to expand its rental and production support programme to include flexible rental and lease/purchase programs alongside a pool of experienced and trained TiMax sound designers and show programmers/operators.

Telephone and fax numbers remain as before, although new address details apply: Out Board Electronics (Sheriff Technology Ltd), Magna House, Dales Manor Business Park, Sawston, Cambridge, CB2 4TJ, UK.
