AS Labruna
AS Labruna was founded in 1971 and built an excellent reputation for its diesel marine engines, generator and propulsion systems. In the 1990s it started an E-Vision division to manufacture marine engines that reduce environmental impact. These systems include battery-electric, hybrid systems combining diesel and electric, and systems utilizing hydrogen fuel cells.

Bellmarine
»» Bellmarine website
Bellmarine has a history going back to 1999 and involves a motor manufacturer merging with a battery accessory manufacturer and then being purchased by Transfluid, a large scale industrial motor manufacturer. Perhaps for this reason, it is a very modular system and difficult to compare with other outboard motors and almost impossible to price compare. This is compounded because the Bellmairne outboard is essentially a saildrive system bolted on to the back of a boat. Having said that, these are the specifications on the Bellmarine website.
Measurement: Bellmarine does not provide any HP or thrust information, but focusses on RPMs and propeller size. HP cannot be calculated without torque specifications, which are not available on the Bellmarine website or in brochures.

E-TECH is a subsidiary of boatbuilder Starboats that was started in 2008 because they were dissatisfied with other electric motor offerings in the market at the time. The company has developed fixed pods, steerable pods and outboard motors that all utilize an in-water BLDC (BrushLess DC permanent magnet) pod motor in a watertight aluminum casing. The outboard pods are equipped with the ruddershaft, tube, steering lever and outboard bracket for mounting at the transom. There is also an E-TECH 4 kW outboard pod which can be found in our Plugboats Guide to Electric Outboards Under 5kW.

- Weight (kg): 41, 41, 46, 48
- Other: The movement takes place thanks to a rotation parallel to the axis that allows to switch from ON mode (propeller immersed in the water ready to work) to OFF mode (propeller out of the water in closed position) completely resetting the external dimensions of the motor. In this way the motor will always be installed ready for use and it will be much easier to place the tender on board (for long navigation) or in the appropriate compartment or garage.

Molabo
»» Molabo website
At the heart of MOLABO motors is the Intelligent Stator Cage Drive (ISCAD®), a patented electric motor technology that delivers high continuous power at a touch-safe 48 V. Instead of complex coil windings, ISCAD uses simple, parallel conductive rods arranged in a cage-like structure. This innovative stator design enables a highly parallelized current path from battery to inverter to motor, minimizing losses and enabling the system to handle the high AC phase currents required at low voltage. In addition to the R50 Outboard there is an Inboard, find details in the Plugboats Guide to Inboard Motors.

Rim Drive Technology
»» Rim Drive Technology website
Rim Drive technology is a Netherlands company with a line of rim motors in which the propeller blades are affixed to a rim rather than a central hub. There are no wearing parts within the motor and much reduced chance of weeds or other debris snagging or clogging. The motors are available as outboards, pods, azimuths and thrusters. In outboards, the company offers three models with less than 5 kW of power (see our Guide to Electric Outboards < 5k) and two models greater than 10 kW, below.

SeaDrive
»» SeaDrive website
SeaDrive is a Norwegian manufacturer that has an innovative approach to electric motors for which they received a nomination for a 2019 DAME Award. The concept is that the basic motors can be configured as outboards, fixed pods, steerable pods, a saildrive or lift-up azimuth side pod – also with the ability to have the propellers arranged for push propulsion or pull propulsion. There are also regenerative versions available. The systems come in three power ratings: 7.5, 15 and 30.

Stealth Electric Outboard
»» Stealth Electric Outboards website
The Stealth electric outboards were developed by Scott Masterson of Houston with the underlying concept of having parts for an electric motor as easily available as those of a gas outboard. The lower unit, shaft and body come from a competitor of Yamaha outboards and an electric motor and controller is installed in place of the ICE powerhead, fitting under the cowling and enabling the outboard to be installed and operated in the same way as a fossil fuel motor but without the fumes, noise and maintenance.
Stealth Switch: 12, 25, 35 HP (9, 18, 25 kW)
The Stealth Switch can be purchased with batteries from 24V to 96V, enabling you to change power without changing the whole motor. A 24V battery will provide a 6 hp /4.5 kW motor and by adding batteries in series it can become a 12 hp / 9kW or a 25 hp / 18 kW motor.
- kW: 9 / 18 / 25 • HP: 12 / 25 / 35 • Voltage (VDC): 48 / 96 / 144 • Amps: 200

Thanks from Austria for these more than useful and professionaly researched and presented informations. BR Wolfgang
Thank you. Glad you have found it helpful!
Thanks from Norway. Very nice, and the first real collection of different brands that I’ve seen.
Regards,
Pelle
Great info. Thanks. The cost of an electric motor compared to a standard petrol is crazy money. Can’t justify the massive cost to go electric yet.
You have the most informative website I’ve ever seen, factual, direct and well explained.
Unfortunately all of the motors shown are out of my price range, (I have rolls Royce expectations and mini cash), that said, if I ever win the lottery I would put great faith in your website. Thankyou for your explanation and obvious amounts of time given and wish you well for the future, regards Rob (England)
Very nice to have all of this information here!
I’m having a hard time finding comprehensive surveys of reliability. I think it would be phenomenally useful to allow me to easily see and sort by how reliable the manufacturer _thinks_ their motor is: sort by warranty length.
Thanks!
Evoy in Norway now makes an awesome electric outboard.
Looks like in the area of 30-45KW we don’t have a big choice in Europe – overpriced Torqeedo or Aquawatt. Would be glad to see bigger competition.
Excellent resource – thanks for compiling this list
Excellent. This is also a great guide to determine a potentially much less expensive DIY approach. Used outboard motors may be converted, with a bit of patience. As for the ICE cost comparison: happy hour cruises are very peaceful with electric.
Reviewing from Australia this information has been highly informative and has abled me to enquire more specifically to manufacturers around the world. Much gratitude for the compilation of information.
Thank you!
