A sustainable choice for sailing
ADVANTAGES
Environmentally friendly : Electric motors do not emit CO₂ or other harmful substances, which is better for nature and aquatic life.
Silent and vibration-free : The silent operation makes electric boating comfortable and enjoyable, without disturbing vibrations or noise.
Low operating costs : No fuel costs and less maintenance than traditional combustion engines.
Efficient energy consumption : Electric motors use energy optimally, which ensures a longer sailing time per battery charge.
Better boating experience : No exhaust fumes or noise, ideal for quiet boat trips and nature reserves.
DISADVANTAGES
Higher purchase price : The initial costs, especially in combination with a lithium battery pack, are higher than those of combustion engines.
Limited sailing time and range : The range depends on the battery capacity and sailing speed. In case of intensive use, a larger battery pack may be necessary.
Lower top speed : Electric motors often have a lower top speed than their fuel-powered counterparts, making them less suitable for high-speed water sports activities.
Limited charging points : Charging facilities along the water are not yet equally accessible everywhere, which requires extra planning.
