Electric Systems for Your Boat

Inboard or Outboard Solutions:

Sized for boat of 22 to 45 feet in length and up to 22000 pounds. Standard systems can satisfy the day sailor or the cruiser.  Select the system that meets you boating needs.

As a sizing rule of thumb the electric drive systems with their flat torque curve and instant power to the shaft, will replace with like performance a diesel or gas engine of 40% to 50% greater horse power with like performance.  Electric drive systems will allow the use of more aggressive propellers which provide better slow rpm performance than the traditional internal combustion engine and transmission.

Systems include:
Rugged brushless 48 and 24 volt electric motor
Motor controller
Belt-driven reduction engineered to match your boat, motor, and prop
Propulsion system and battery monitor
Easy to use single lever electronic throttle and key
Battery switch
System fuse and solenoid
Custom coupler to fit your prop shaft
