E-DRIVES
The heart of the electric propulsion system is the motor. Connected via the V-CAN modular digital CAN-bus communication system, it provides quiet, reliable and low-maintenance sailing.
VETUS offers E-LINE in-line propeller shaft solutions and the innovative compact E-POD solution. The motor selection will depend upon multiple parameters such as hull shape, so please feel free to contact your dealer for detailed advice.
The compact E-LINE motor range is designed to fit existing propulsion foundations and propeller shaft installations. The supplied Swap & Go mounting brackets, with motor mounts specifically developed for electric propulsion motors, can easily be adjusted in height and set to angle the shaft to 0° or 8°. This makes repowering and connecting to an existing propeller shaft a simple task.
The E-POD combines the motor, suspension, cooling, gearbox, clutch, propeller shaft and propeller into one complete system. This space-saving solution makes the engine box and through-boat propeller shaft redundant, opening up the floor space. This makes a completely new boat design possible.
