An electric boat uses an electric motor instead of a traditional fuel engine. Solar electric boats also use solar panels to generate energy, which is stored in batteries and used to power the motor, offering a quiet and emission-free boating experience.
Solar panels on the boat convert sunlight into electricity, which is stored in onboard batteries. This energy powers the electric motor that drives the propeller. The system can also be charged from shore power when needed.
We currently ship within the EU. Boat deliveries and larger products may involve freight or pickup options depending on the order and destination.
Range depends on boat size, battery capacity, and speed. In general, electric boats are ideal for day trips, leisure cruising, and lake or coastal use. Operating at lower speeds significantly extends range.
Charging time depends on the system and power source. Standard shore charging can take several hours, while solar charging is gradual and depends on sunlight conditions. For example, charging a 5 kWh battery fully takes about 6 hours with shore power.
Electric boats require significantly less maintenance than traditional fuel-powered boats because they have fewer moving parts. There is no oil, fuel system, or engine servicing in the traditional sense, which reduces long-term maintenance needs.
