TORQEEDO CRUISE 6.0 RL Electric Outboard Motor / TorqLink / long shaft

For dinghies and sailboats up to 6 tonnes!

The Torqeedo CRUISE 6.0 TorqLink:

• Highly efficient outboard with 6,000 W input power, equivalent to a 9.9 HP petrol outboard.
• Suitable for dinghies and sailboats up to to 6 tonnes.
• Remote steering connector option, comes with remote throttle.
• Rugged aluminium pylon with reinforced fin – extra robust even when running aground.
• Shaft sealant rings mounted in protected area on the inside of the pylons.
• Highest-grade seawater-proof aluminium (AIMgSi1), hard anodised for long operating life, even in the harshest conditions.
• Lubricant-free polymer plain bearings protect against damage from fishing lines or debris and provide improved mechanical support for propeller shaft – wear-resistant and maintenance-free.
• Excellent protection against galvanic corrosion through carefully selected material combinations and meticulous isolation of all materials with different electrochemical properties.
• Aluminium fin coated in polyurethane foam provides additional protection from impacts.
• All waterproof to IP67.
• TorqLink: Torqeedo's advanced electronic communication system developed for Deep Blue and now available for selected Cruise engines, throttles and Power 48-5000 batteries. All TorqLink products communicate effortlessly with each other at start-up. A TorqLink Gateway (2217-00) allows you to integrate components without TorqLink into your system.

Range, speed & running time

* Depending on boat type, load, propeller and environmental conditions, information on speeds and ranges without guarantee

When travelling through water, displacement increases power required in proportion to the cube (third power) of the speed. This means that doubling water speed increases the power required eightfold. Conversely, it of course also means that only a slight reduction in speed will increase the range attainable significantly. Simply reducing speed by e.g. half a knot has a considerable effect on the remaining range. Since mental arithmetic to the power of three is quite tricky, the on-board computer of the Cruise constantly calculates the remaining range for you. To do this, it combines the consumption data from the motor with the charge level of the batteries together with the speed over water obtained via GPS. This means you can read the remaining range in real time from the Cruise's display. Using the TorqTrac App you can even read the remaining range from a map on your smartphone.
