Whether it's a day of fishing coastal flats under a cloudless crystalline sky or an inland tree-lined shore on a cool autumn afternoon, savvy anglers increasingly choose Elco electric outboards for their propulsion needs. They're exceptionally quiet, offer an impressive all-day fishing range and deliver the raw power needed to throttle up and move to the next hot spot.

To match a wide range of boat types and fishing styles, Elco offers six models of electric outboards from five to 50 comparable horsepower. Unlike their two- and four-stroke gasoline-powered counterparts, electric outboards only have four moving parts and no fuel-related issues so there's virtually no scheduled maintenance. This makes Elco motors ready to go whenever the power is switched on. Plus, because they're non-polluting, they can be used on the increasing number of inland lakes and coastal waters that are now off-limits to traditional combustion engines.

While performance and reliability are at the heart of every Elco outboard, so is safety. Delivering over 90% efficiency, the water-cooled brushless permanent rare-earth magnet AC motors (PMAC) have voltage, speed and temperature protections. An integrated alert system notifies when battery levels drop. With the available Elco DASH companion app, speed, RPM, charge and other operation criteria can be instantly accessed via a mobile device or smartwatch. Elco electric outboards are available with long or short shafts and tiller or remote throttles.
