Which electric motor suits your boat?
Benefits
Quiet boating: An electric motor generally operates more quietly than a combustion engine. The noise you hear also depends on the drivetrain and the boat.
No exhaust emissions from the electric motor: No combustion takes place in the motor while boating electrically.
Less maintenance: Maintenance requirements vary by model. Follow the manual for checks on the motor, battery, connections and other components.
Things to consider
Power and speed: Match the motor to the boat, load and desired speed. Compare performance for your application; a horsepower comparison alone is not enough.
Battery and charger: Check that voltage, capacity, connections and communication are compatible with the motor.
Complete package? Check whether the battery, charger, controls, cables and installation are included for each version. Compare the price of the complete system.
Charging: Decide beforehand where you can charge and which charging time suits your use.
