Electric motors offer quiet, clean propulsion with no exhaust fumes, noise, or vibration. Advances in electric motor technology also mean boaters have more powerful options with longer-lasting batteries. Many types of boats, including pontoons, fishing boats, towboats, sailboats, and day cruisers can be outfitted with electric motors.

Power in electric motors is measured by kilowatts (kW) rather than horsepower (hp).

Modern electric motors require minimal maintenance and a yearly tune-up by a qualified technician will keep an electric motor running at peak efficiency.
