Lightweight Electric Outboard Mptors

This page of our website is focused on which lightweight electric outboard is the right solution for your needs.

Electric outboards are now well established and most people buy them because they are far less hassle than a small petrol outboard ie

  • No servicing
  • Electric start so very family friendly
  • Can be stored anyway round
  • No smelly fuel

In addition they are also virtually silent so a pleasure to use.

To make this simple we have chosen 2 best in class engines that:

  • Are proven in the market for longevity and build quality
  • Sold globally ie not a start up company
  • Lightweight
  • Have UK support
  • Have no known issues
  • Offer the best value for money compared to other options

ePropulsion eLite

The stand out global leader is the ePropulsion eLite at under 7kg with inbuilt battery.  This motor does not just look stunning, its brilliant and  it is by far the market leader.

What we like

  • At less than 7kg it really is easy to carry and use.
  • It comes with everything in the box ie 2 kill sords, bag, charger etc.
  • The engine looks amazing.
  • 2-2.5 hours moving time between charging

Limitations

The ePropulsion eLite is not designed for users who will use the tender in strong currents and tides.

The standard shaft length is also misleading as it really is an extra short shaft engine so only suitable for some tenders. For this reason we strongly recommend the adjustable long shaft version which strangely is actually a short shaft in length. 

If you want more versatility and still very light weight that can handle strong currents/ tides etc then then the Remigo One Neo with inbuilt battery is stunning at 12kg including the inbuilt battery

RemigoOne Neo

This has inbuilt 1Kwh battery so double the ePropulsion elite and has double the power (1.5kw compared to 750w in boost mode) and is still very easy to carry.

This is the best lightweight portable versatile solution on the market.  It also has adjustable shaft length that maximises efficiency but also means it will work on all boats.

It also has the option of remote control throttle, a higher tiller arm angle and we found it to be the easiest to use.
