Electric sailboats - Progress through technology
Electric motorboats offer an exciting and innovative experience on the water. Driving electrically is passion. Maximum acceleration and at the same time whisper-quiet.
Sailboats with electric motors offer an environmentally friendly alternative for lakes where combustion engines are not allowed anyway. They are free of emissions and completely sustainable with green electricity. The sometimes very innovative motors ensure a very efficient ride.
Increasing demand for electric sailboats
The demand for electric sailboats has increased significantly in recent years - which is not surprising - as more people want to live more environmentally conscious and have fun on the water at the same time.
With all the latest features and technologies, these electric sailboats have redefined expectations! New technologies and materials are being used: boats made of carbon, motors with a pancake motor and much more!
Many sailboats can already generate electricity while sailing. Of course, only in small quantities, but especially on longer trips, this can be worthwhile!

Electric sailboats and the environment
Electric sailboats offer many advantages over those with combustion engines. Since they are emission-free, they help to reduce environmental pollution caused by the emission of carbon dioxide and other pollutants.
This is a huge problem, especially with boats, as there are hardly any filters. A conventional boat with a combustion engine emits up to 38 times more CO2 equivalent emissions than a car.
In addition, sailboats with electric motors require significantly less maintenance and consume significantly less energy than gasoline or diesel engines during normal operation. With a sailboat, you mainly want to sail and are not dependent on a loud and smelly engine. Weight is not a major factor, so durable LiFePO4 batteries are also suitable.
