ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus Electric Outboard Motor

Product Overview

The ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus is a professional-grade, 1kW portable electric outboard motor, widely regarded as the industry standard for clean, quiet, and reliable marine propulsion. Engineered for dinghies, fishing boats, tenders, and small sailboats, it delivers the equivalent thrust of a 3HP gas outboard. Its standout feature is the 1276Wh large-capacity integrated battery, which provides significant range while remaining buoyant—should the battery happen to fall overboard, it floats.

This motor utilizes a brushless DC direct-drive system, which eliminates the need for gears or internal transmission components. This design not only minimizes maintenance but also provides near-silent operation and high torque response. Whether you are seeking a eco-friendly alternative for harbor cruising or need a lightweight, high-performance motor for your tender, the Spirit 1.0 Plus offers a perfect balance of power, portability, and sustainability.

Key Features & Benefits

• High-Capacity Power: Delivers 1kW of power, comparable to a 3HP gas engine, providing enough thrust for most small-to-medium tenders and recreational craft.

• Floating Lithium Battery: The 1276Wh integrated Spirit Battery Plus is optimized for marine environments; it is lightweight, high-capacity, and—most importantly—designed to float if accidentally dropped.

• Direct-Drive Maintenance: By removing the gear train, ePropulsion has reduced wear-and-tear points, making the motor quieter, more reliable, and practically maintenance-free.

• Charging Versatility: The standard charger provides a full charge in 8.5 hours. For professional users or those with back-to-back boating sessions, an optional fast charger reduces downtime to just 3.5 hours.

• Extended Range Capability: Beyond the integrated battery, the system is fully compatible with external ePropulsion E-Series batteries for users who require even longer endurance.

• Adjustable Rigging: Available in Extra Short, Short, and Long shaft lengths, with four trim positions (0°, 7°, 14°, 21°) to ensure optimal performance on any hull.

Support & Safety Guidelines

Floating Battery Safety: While the battery is designed to float, it is not intended for long-term submersion. Always retrieve the battery immediately if dropped overboard and ensure the contacts are rinsed with fresh water and dried before further use.

Maintenance Tip: The direct-drive system is largely maintenance-free. However, we recommend periodically checking the propeller for fishing line or debris and performing a quick wash-down with fresh water after every use in salt or brackish water.
