Technical features of the Spirit 1.0 EVO
Available in two different shaft lengths (short shaft 625 mm and long shaft 750 mm)
Very modern and sporty design, distinguished with a design award
Lifelong maintenance-free.

Very low noise – under 60dB! The electric motor is therefore significantly quieter than combustion engines.
The powerful lithium-polymer battery ensures a long-range
Lightweight – 10.6 kg just the motor and 8.8 kg for the battery
Range of the Spirit 1.0 EVO battery
The battery of the Spirit EVO is enough for easy 4 hours of driving time in normal use (self-tested!). Depending on the driving plus-minus 1-2 hours. It all depends on how heavy the boat is and at what speed you want to drive. Attached are a few real-world examples with an inflatable boat:
Under full load, the Spirit 1.0 EVO lasts an hour and 15 minutes, reaches a speed of max. 10 km/h. The range was 12.5 km.
At 1/2 power, the driving pleasure lasts for a trip over 2.5 hours on the water with a marching speed of 8.5 km/h and a range of 21.3 km
Who plans longer and more leisurely tours on the water, comes with less power still significantly further. At 1/4 power, a speed of 7.1 km/h was achieved for 5 hours. So a total range of 35.5 km with only one battery charge.
Who plans longer tours on the water, the battery can be quickly replaced in a few steps and still order a replacement battery.

Thanks to the variable battery, you can easily take a spare battery on board. The 1.28 kWh lithium-ion battery can be charged from 0 to 100 within 8 hours. Usually, however, it goes much faster, because you rarely drive the battery completely empty.
Alternatively, charging is also possible via a 12 V on-board network or with solar cells. The lithium-ion battery can thus be quickly made roadworthy again.
