Welcome to our collection of electric outboard motors, where the future of boating begins. With a focus on efficiency, versatility, and performance, our electric motors offer a modern and environmentally friendly way to navigate the water.
An electric outboard motor is the solution for those who want to boat quietly, efficiently, and sustainably. Whether it is a sloop, workboat, motorboat , or recreational boat, electric propulsion offers maximum control, minimal maintenance costs, and a comfortable boating experience.
At Robust-MT, we combine technical reliability with innovative drive technology. We supply electric outboard motors developed for both professional use and recreational boating, with a focus on performance, sustainability, and ease of use.
An electric outboard motor for your boat offers several advantages over a traditional fuel engine:
More and more boating areas are switching to electric boating. With an electric outboard motor, you are prepared for this development.
The right electric outboard motor for your boat depends heavily on the application. The type of boat, weight, number of passengers, and desired speed play an important role in this.
For smaller boats or light applications, a compact motor is often sufficient. If you take a heavier boat out on the water or want to cruise for longer periods, a more powerful model is necessary. By carefully matching these factors, you get the most out of your electric drive.
An electric outboard motor is almost the ideal combination for sloops. Its quiet operation makes long trips more pleasant, the absence of vibrations increases comfort, and petrol outboard motors are simply no longer permitted in more and more boating areas (including many natural lakes and urban waterways).

The term 10 hp electric outboard motor is widely used, but technically speaking, it is not entirely correct. HP is a unit associated with internal combustion engines, whereas electric motors are measured in kilowatts (kW). As an indication, 10 hp is roughly equivalent to ±7.3 kW, but a direct comparison is difficult and often misleading. An electric motor operates fundamentally differently. It delivers maximum torque immediately from a standstill, causing it to respond powerfully right away and often feel faster and stronger at low speeds. An internal combustion engine, on the other hand, must first build up revs to build up power. This difference is also reflected on the water. Electric boating is about control, efficiency, and instant power, while petrol outboard motors are more focused on speed over longer distances. Therefore, it is important not to look solely at horsepower, but primarily at the actual usage and the power required by the motor in practice.
If you want to buy an electric outboard motor, there are a number of important factors:
Match the motor power to the weight of your boat, the number of passengers, and the desired speed. More power than necessary consumes battery energy unnecessarily.
The battery determines how long you can sail. At higher speeds, consumption increases exponentially. Proper battery matching is at least as important as the motor itself.
Choose the correct shank length for your mirror. Incorrect tail length results in loss of efficiency or cabritation risk.
Choose from a tiller, remote control, or integrated steering wheel systems. Which one suits you best depends on your boat type and sailing style.
Some motors have specific propellers or anode sets for saltwater. Please indicate this with your purchase.
An electric outboard motor has full torque available immediately and therefore delivers much more thrust. This ensures a fast and smooth response, giving you more control over the boat.
Performance on the water is influenced by several factors, such as the weight of the boat, the load, and the conditions. Battery capacity also plays an important role in cruising time. By finding the right balance here, you cruise efficiently without compromising on comfort.
A major advantage of electric boating is limited maintenance. Because an electric outboard motor does not use oil, fuel systems, or complex mechanical parts, wear and tear is significantly less, and the risk of failure is therefore smaller. This makes an electric motor much more reliable than an internal combustion engine.
With regular use and basic checks, the motor remains in good condition, and with our outboard motors, you can count on a long service life. This makes electric boating not only more sustainable but also economically attractive in the long run.
In short, step aboard the electric revolution with our electric motors. Discover the benefits of quiet, clean, and efficient boating and experience the freedom of electric propulsion.
Electric boating is becoming increasingly important. Legislation is changing and sustainability is playing an ever-greater role. With an electric outboard motor, you choose a solution that is ready for the future.
With an electric outboard motor, you choose:
Welcome to the world of electric outboard motors.
Choosing the right electric outboard motor requires more than just comparing product sheets. Weight, usage, cruising area, and battery compatibility are factors that combine to determine whether you leave the harbor satisfied.
Robust-MT has its own workshop in Monster and extensive experience with installations for sloops, motorboats, and sailboats. Feel free contact us; we are happy to think along with you, without sales pressure.
How much does an electric outboard motor cost?
Prices range from around €1,000 for compact entry-level models to €20,000 and more for powerful systems for larger boats. For a good mid-range motor for a sloop, you typically expect to pay between €2,000 and €6,000, excluding the battery.
How long can I sail on a single battery charge?
That depends heavily on the motor power, boat speed, and weight. When cruising calmly at half power, you will usually get 4 to 8 hours. At full speed, that drops to 1 to 2 hours. A larger battery or a second battery significantly extended the cruising time.
Which electric outboard motor suits my sloop?
That depends on the weight and length of your sloop. As a rule of thumb: up to 500 kg, 3–6 kW is sufficient; from 500–1,000 kg, choose 6–9 kW; above that, you need 10 kW or more. We are happy to provide personal advice.
Are electric outboard motors allowed everywhere?
Petrol outboard motors are (partially) prohibited on an increasing number of waters, such as the Biesbosch, the canals of Utrecht and Amsterdam, and various nature lakes. Electric outboard motors are permitted on virtually all waterways.
What is the difference between ePropulsion and Torqeedo?
Both are leading brands in electric outboard motors. ePropulsion is known for its favorable price-performance ratio and innovative features such as hydrogeneration. Torqeedo has a broad product line from compact to professional and excels in integrated systems. We are happy to help you choose based on your situation.
