Electric Outboard Boat Motors
Ashton Marine is a specialist in electric outboard / inboard motors, offering solutions from 500w to 50kw.
We also have invested in testing stock and use these engines on a regular basis on a wide variety of craft including tenders, fishing boats, commercial boats, steam boats ( used as a back up) RIB’s creel boats, motor sailors etc .
This gives us first hand experience of how they work in the real world and most importantly, data. so we can give you realistic expectations of range, speed, charging times etc.
This investment of time and equipment has made us one of the biggest electric engine dealers in the UK with clients from as far south as Jersey and Guernsey to remote Scottish islands.
Currently our client base is a mix of commercial operators who enjoy the increased reliability and no servicing. ie aquaculture, boat charter companies, inland fisheries and private users.
Our story of why we got involved in electric outboards
The game changer for us came after testing the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus (with its floating battery). We were looking for an auxiliary electric outboard for our Warrior 165 and 5m Safety Rib (Carson 500 with a deep v hull and wider than other RHIBs of similar size) and were incredibly impressed with the range and performance achieved.
