Engineers whose defining technological contribution is a vessel, a marine propulsion system, or an instrument built for navigation at sea. Belongs here: Robert Fulton, whose 1807 steam-propelled vessel demonstration is traditionally treated as the start of the marine engineering profession, and John Hadley, whose octant design is the direct forerunner of the marine sextant. Does not belong here: land or air transport engines that share a propulsion principle with a marine one, grouped under Mechanical or Aerospace Engineering.
