Product details

ePropulsion-sprit


Strong on the inside, stylish on the outside: this outboard impresses with smooth, quiet operation, precise handling, and plenty of torque to satisfy even experienced skippers. The practical carrying handle makes transport and handling around the dock especially easy. Whether fishing, covering short distances, or simply enjoying the confidence of being in complete control, this motor is a reliable companion. Tough design, smooth running, and intelligently engineered, it makes even demanding maneuvres feel effortless.


Special gear ratio for increased thrust.

When the load is heavy or the current gets stronger, this gear ratio ensures that you keep moving reliably. More thrust, less slip – ideal for towing, pushing, and confident maneuvering, even when conditions get more demanding.

Intelligent engine design

Performance that feels smooth and confident – never loud or intrusive. The thoughtfully engineered twin-cylinder design delivers the power you need while combining it with remarkably smooth and refined operation. An engine that impresses quietly and inspires confidence with every mile.

Intelligent engine design.


Dual-Thrust propeller for powerful performance in forward and reverse.

Whether moving forward or in reverse, this propeller delivers powerful, controlled thrust in both directions. The larger blades and intelligent exhaust redirection make precise maneuvering easier—whether you want to dock with ease or set off quickly for your next trip.

True mobility.

Every adventure begins with the first lift – and that should be as easy as possible. The sturdy carrying handle and foldable tiller make transport, boarding, and storage especially convenient. That way, your day on the water starts with anticipation instead of heavy lifting.

True mobility.
