Choosing an Electric Outboard

Electric outboards and trolling motors offer quiet, precise boat control, making them ideal for fishing, positioning and manoeuvring - not replacing horsepower. We supply Minn Kota and Garmin electric motors and can recommend the right system to suit your boat, fishing style and budget. Please note every boat is different.

So before you buy, consider:

✔ Boat size & weight – This determines the thrust you’ll need.

✔ Mounting position – Bow or transom mounting depends on your boat and application. Note a bracket will be required and possibly engineered.

✔ Shaft length – The correct shaft length is essential for performance and efficiency.

✔ Battery setup – Battery requirements for the outboard, weight and location/placement can affect your time on the water.

Consider:

• type, lithium vs AGM vs deep cycle

• capacity

• charger
