Welcome to Silent Yachting's Blog about all things to do with electric boats and boating.
With the advent of lithium ion batteries electric boating has moved to the next level, you only have to have a glimpse of the beautiful Domani E32 above to see how far things have come in the last few years.
But It's not all about brand new shiny E-boats as it is now possible to upgrade almost any boat to electric power with the advent of the electric outboard motor, and these are available in many shapes and sizes. - Many of them have actually been around for a long time, however they have always been heavy and cumbersome (or at least the batteries have been).
Now you have the option of much high tech options like the REMIGO electric outboard which has been specifically designed to fit almost any vessel up to 1500kg.
Electric outboard motors have many advantages above the obvious one of not needing to buy or store fuel onboard anymore, for instance when it comes to transporting your outboard motor you will have to make sure it's positioned correctly otherwise you may find a bit of a mess, you will also have to either be able to service a petrol old school outboard motor or pay someone else to do it for you, all of which are ongoing further expenses not to mention a bit of a hassle. However - none of this is the case with an electric outboard motor.
