America's Electric Watercraft Specialist

Electric boats are transforming the boating industry, offering numerous benefits over traditional gasoline-powered boats.

Silent Operation

Electric motors provide a quiet and peaceful ride, letting you enjoy the sounds of nature without the constant noise of a motor. This tranquility enhances your time on the water, allowing for closer encounters with wildlife.

No Water Fouling or Emissions

Electric boats produce zero exhaust emissions, making them an environmentally friendly choice. They help reduce your carbon footprint and preserve air and water quality, unlike gasoline-powered boats that contribute to local and global pollution.

Affordable and Low Maintenance

While the initial cost of electric boats might be higher, the long-term savings are significant. Electricity is cheaper than marine gasoline, and maintenance costs are lower since electric motors have fewer moving parts. They require less frequent servicing, saving you time and money.

Safer Boating Experience

Electric boats eliminate the risks of gasoline leaks and carbon monoxide poisoning. Their robust design reduces the likelihood of mechanical failures, and their low noise levels improve safety by allowing better awareness of your surroundings.

The electric revolution in boating is here, offering a sustainable and exciting alternative to traditional boating. With a range of options to suit different needs and budgets, now is the perfect time to consider making the switch to an electric boat. Join the movement toward cleaner waters and a greener future.

One of the major advantages of electric boats is their generally lower maintenance and winterization requirements compared to traditional gas-powered boats.

Electric motors are renowned for their simplicity and reliability, featuring fewer moving parts and less complex systems than internal combustion engines. This results in fewer routine maintenance tasks, such as oil changes, tune-ups, and other engine-related services. The only required maintenance on most electric boats is replacing the sacrificial anodes which are relatively cheap and are the same process as traditional boats. Even a larger X shore with 4-5 zincs is less than $1-200/year. This timeline can be drastically effected by poor electrical equipment on a nearby boat/dock.

Winterization on an electric boat is as simple as pulling it out of the water and cleaning it off.  In colder tempatures, some higher end electric power boats may require a flush of the fresh water coolant systems.  

Yes, converting a gas-powered boat to electric is possible and increasingly popular. Here’s what you need to know:

Conversion Feasibility: The ease and cost of conversion depend on the boat's size, type, and current setup. Smaller boats and those with simpler systems are usually easier to convert.

Components Needed: Key components include an electric motor, battery bank (often lithium-ion or LiFePO4), controller, battery management system (BMS), and charging system.

Professional Help: It's highly recommended to consult with or hire professionals who specialize in electric boat conversions to ensure a safe and efficient transition.

Benefits: An electric conversion can reduce operating costs, lower maintenance, and offer quieter and more eco-friendly boating.

Considerations: Evaluate the range and power requirements based on your typical boating activities. You’ll also need to consider charging infrastructure and space for batteries.

Regulations and Compliance: Ensure that the conversion complies with local maritime regulations and safety standards.

Converting a gas boat to electric can be a worthwhile investment, offering a greener and quieter boating experience.

The range of an electric boat can vary significantly based on several factors including speed, weight, and water conditions. Here’s a general breakdown:

Low Speeds: At slower speeds, electric boats can operate all day, providing a longer range due to reduced energy consumption.

Cruising Speeds: When at cruising speeds, most electric boats have a range of 30-60 nautical miles.

Weight and Water Conditions: The weight of the boat and its passengers, as well as the water conditions, can impact the overall range. Heavier loads and rougher waters may reduce the range.

Ultimately, the exact range will depend on your specific boat and usage conditions, but electric boats are designed to offer efficient and enjoyable experiences on the water.

Charging an electric boat is straightforward, with several options available to suit different needs and environments. A j1772 charging adaptor with level 2 charging is the most common for larger boats, while some smaller boats can charge with a basic extension cord off a level 1 charger.

Most marinas provide standard shore power outlets (30 or 50 amps) that can be used to charge your electric boat. This is a convenient and widely accessible option for many boat owners.

Please note- some adapters may be required. Please inquire here(contact us link) with pictures if you have specific questions. 

We usually recommend to get a dual 30 to 50A adapter along with a 50A extension cord incase the pedestal is further away. Your local marine store may have them along with amazon.
