Pure Watercraft is selling electric outboards currently up to 50 HP. They are also combining their electric motors with pontoon boats, RIB's, and bass boats.
They are Bluetooth enabled for control. I'm looking forward to seeing the first person docking their boat using their cellphone.
A 50 HP is $16,500 so you would need to save a lot of gas before the numbers worked. That is about twice what a 50 HP gas outboard would cost.
The good news may be no winterizing and no worries about the cold. You could put on your snorkel parka and mittens and extend your boating season!
GM has invested $150 million in the company so it might have a strong future.
Also, GM formed a strategic partnership with MP Materials Corp to develop a supply chain for rare earth magnets for use in the company’s EVs. GM is making big commitments to an electric future.
