In short, the answer is yes.
As renewable energy and battery technology continue to advance, the reliability and efficiency of electric sailboat engines have come on leaps and bounds.
It is now possible to get an electric motor for sailboat, whether refitted or pre-installed, that can propel vessels weighing several tonnes at a decent speed with a very reasonable range. What's more, these improvements are likely to continue as the industry and technology mature and start to operate at scale.
At P&L Lowlands, we've partnered with Elco, the world's most experienced and trust electric boat motor manufacturers to offer you a range of electric sailboat engine options and advise you along the way.
Wind power is a big part of sailing, but motors have long played an important role to move in light winds, help with mooring, and keep onboard electronic systems running.
Using an electric motor for sailboat propulsion as well as for the sailboat's electronics is now increasingly viable, and even offers several advantages over fossil fuel-based engines.
These include:
As the need to transition away from fossil fuels becomes increasingly urgent, the fact that using an electric motor for sailboat drastically reduces greenhouse gas emissions is hugely important.
There are some drawbacks to an electric sailboat engine though. For instance, the upfront cost is higher than that of an equivalent-size fossil fuel engine but the gap is narrowing.
Furthermore, in the long run, the costs even out as it is much cheaper to recharge a battery than to fill a fuel tank, especially if you are using renewable sources.
Another perceived disadvantage of the electric motor for sailboat is their more limited range, due to the lower energy density of batteries compared to traditional fuels.
Aside from the motor installation you have, the range varies significantly depending on the sailboat type, the number of people onboard and prevailing environmental conditions, not to mention the amount of throttle you apply.
However, to make an estimate you can make use of Elco's electric motor calculator to get an idea.
In general, sailboats don't need as big a motor as powerboats but what works best?
The approximate size of the electric motor you need for your sailboat can be worked out according to its hull displacement, meaning the weight of the boat. As a rough guide, the equivalent of 4 HP is needed for every tonne and, as a general rule of thumb, you won't need more than a 30 HP electric motor for sailboats.
Every sailboat and the needs of its owner are different though. This is why P&L Lowlands provides advice and a quote free of charge and with no obligation to determine what would work best for you.
We have a range of Elco electric boat motors suitable for a variety of sailboats. Get in touch with us to find out more.

Oceanvolt offers a range of sail drive motors to provide propulsion and hydro generation for vessels ranging from 15 to 80 feet.
The patented Oceanvolt ServoProp variable pitch sail drive combines a high efficiency sail drive with the most powerful hydro generator on the market. The unique feature of the ServoProp is the possibility to turn the propeller blades more than 180 degrees. The software controlled variable pitch sail drive adjusts the pitch of the propeller blades automatically so that the power generation and power output are optimal. Combined with uniquely designed blades it delivers optimal efficiency in both forward, reverse and hydro generation. And with the blades set to the neutral sailing position, the propeller creates extremely low drag similar to the drag of a feathering propeller. The benefits of ServoProp include an estimated +30% increase in forward propulsion, +100% in reverse and +300% increase in hydro generation effect.
A normal fixed propeller (that by nature does not have the blades ideally shaped for regeneration) generates less than half the power of ServoProp at a given boat speed. ServoProp is capable of generating more than 1 kW at 6-8 knots. The power generated can be used to power both the propulsion system as well as all the electronics on board without the need to have a separate generator. With this in mind we can definitely start talking about the possibility of a totally self-sufficient cruiser!
The ServoProp is suitable as a propulsion motor for monohulls up to 50 ft & multihulls up to 60 ft. It can also be used as a hydro generator in boats up to 100 ft.
Maserati and Vita Power teamed up to create the Tridente boat
Tridente sports 600 hp and 31 to 43 miles of range
The electric Tridente boat costs $2.6 million
Maserati has partnered with Vita Power to create a luxury boat, called the Tridente .
The boat costs 2.5 million Euros, which is about $2.6 million at current exchange rates.
Maserati Tridente electric boat
This 34-foot boat with a carbon fiber hull carries up to 10 people, has a bed in the bow, a sink, a toilet, a fresh-water shower for hosing off the water you presumably swam in, and a fridge.
More importantly, it’s electric. It’s powered by four 63-kwh battery packs wired in series for a total pack size of 250 kwh. It runs a 400-volt electrical system with a maximum charge rate of 200 kw. That can fast-charge the battery from 10-80% in under an hour.
The electric motors put out a total of 600 hp to two Mercury stern drives with twin props to handle the torque steer.
Max speed is 46 mph, but cruising speed is 28 to 32 mph with a range of 31 to 43 miles depending on a host of variables.
In an odd twist, the Tridente I tested had ZipWakes we have installed on our own fishing boat. These are a form of modern trim tabs that drop down into the water to create an air cavity that helps level and smooth the ride. Noting the team didn’t have them engaged, I was told they are only used if necessary because they add drag. (Seakeepers also reduce side-to-side roll, but don’t drop down as much into the water, creating less drag.)
Fancy yourself in the market? It’ll take about nine months to have it made and delivered.
Maserati brought me to Italy to drive the 2025 GranCabrio Folgore electric convertible, but the pretense was I'd also get to experience the Tridente. The experience was supposed to include me behind the wheel. I went for a ride on the boat and the instant torque surprised a few journalists who weren’t prepared for the driver to hit it, as a water skier would say. The powertrain was nearly silent and absolutely covered by the wind noise at speed.
More importantly, if you, me, or anyone were to find themselves on the rear sun deck, they'd breathe more easily. The Tridente emits no fumes because there’s no gas engine. Whether cruising, trolling slowly, or just hanging out on the water, there’s no smell.
Everyone at Maserati lobbied for me to get behind the wheel, but the boat’s handler looked me deep in the eyes and said one word, “Insurance.”
Next time, Maserati. Next time.
Maserati paid for travel and lodging to so I could bring you GranCabrio driving impressions, and ride in the electric Tridente, more on the GranCabrio soon

Italian automaker Maserati disproves the fallacy that electric boats are slow and too heavy to float with one of its newest collaborations. The Tridente, a 34-foot all-electric powerboat that carries eight passengers, is both fast and buoyant.
Maserati’s Tridente is a tender, which is another name for a smaller craft that runs back and forth from a larger yacht or ship. Cruise ships use tenders to shuttle passengers to shore, and yacht owners use them as an accessory. This tender is battery powered and capable of 43 miles before requiring charging at a speed of 25 to 40 knots (roughly comparable to 28-46 miles per hour on land).
Boasting a radical decrease in noise pollution and emissions from gas-powered boats, the Tridente is constructed with a lightweight carbon fiber hull in cooperation with American company Hodgdon Yachts, a boat builder from Maine. Technology firm Vita Power provides the proprietary software and hardware that propels the Tridente with two motors making a combined 600 horsepower.
“Not only do electric boats run all day without emitting a single gram of CO2, they also eliminate the negative effects of engine noise, fuel slicks, and bilge water on the marine environment,” Vita Power says on its website.
If the future of boating is quieter and cleaner, it sounds lovely. Here’s all the details we have so far on Maserati’s contribution to the cause.
Vita Power says it built the first electric powertrain compatible with high-speed DC charging. In the Tridente, Maserati claims the luxury motorboat can be recharged up to 90 percent in under an hour. While it may be odd to imagine DC fast chargers at a boat dock, it’s not beyond the realm of possibility and it’s not the only way to power these boats. Those leaving their electric boat at the slip can use a slow-drip household outlet for prolonged charging sessions as well.
Klaus Busse, the global head of design for Maserati, also sketched the silhouette of the new GranCabrio, the automaker’s new 761-horsepower electric convertible.
“Maserati and Vita Power share the same vision on electrification and both build the vehicles of the future, based on reduced environmental impact, improved customer experience, advanced technology, high quality and sophisticated materials,” Busse says.
Electric boats aren’t new, but they’re still uncommon. Technology and energy companies are coming up with new ways to power watercraft, including battery and solar power, too. Vita Power says surplus energy generated onboard the tender’s companion ship can be harnessed for charging. Italy-based Silent Yachts says its tenders can be connected to any Silent yacht and recharged directly through the energy produced by its solar panels. Even hydrogen is a possibility, as companies like Yamaha have been testing prototype fuel systems for outboard motors.
The Tridente is reserved for the super-rich: It takes about 10 months to build and costs upwards of $2.6 million. However, the yacht tender represents the proliferation of electric-powered vehicles and is part of a trend the public has been puzzling about for more than a decade. Over time, the technology could trickle down into a more affordable bracket.
Tridente represents Maserati’s commitment to a high-tech, sustainable lineup , which includes its vehicles; the brand says its entire range will be electrified by 2028. Maserati put an exclamation point on that goal with the unveiling of the GranCabrio EV in April.
Billed as the first all-electric convertible in the luxury segment and the fastest electric convertible on the market, Maserati’s GranCabrio Folgore is nearly identical to the GranTurismo Folgore coupe. It costs about one-tenth of a Tridente tender at $220,000 and goes five times further on land with a 233-mile range.
The Gran Cabrio Folgore uses three motors, not two like the Tridente. It’s expected to zoom from zero to 60 miles per hour in less than three seconds, and will be available stateside starting in 2025.
While infrastructure and production challenges continue to challenge EV adoption, all-electric powertrains have shown their capability for speed, instant torque, and fast charging. If the Tridente is any indication, watercraft isn’t far behind.

Ford has officially chosen Long Beach as its new home to develop its next-generation EV platform. The new headquarters will be where Ford’s “Skunkworks” team will build its affordable next-gen electric vehicles.
CEO Jim Farley revealed Ford had been “secretly” working on a low-cost EV platform on a media call with investors in February.
According to Farley, Ford had a small “skunkworks” team working on the project. The team consists of “some of the best EV engineers in the world.”
Alan Clarke, who previously worked at Tesla for 12 years, leads the project. However, it’s not just Tesla that Ford has taken talent from. The team includes former Rivian, Lucid, and Apple employees.
Ford has also brought on eVTOL industry talent from leaders like Archer Aviation, Joby, and Hyundai’s Supernal.
“They are engineering a completely different approach, a different product at a different cost with a much smaller battery and different chemistry,” Farley explained.
The team is advancing Ford’s next-gen affordable electric vehicles. Ford has said the new platform will be flexible and will support several different types of vehicles.
Rex Richardson, Mayor of Long Beach, and Ford announced the new home for the automaker’s new Advanced Electric Vehicle Development Center Wednesday.
What would really crack me up at this point is if Ford and GM beat Tesla to market with desirable b-segment EVs while Rimac/Verne beats Tesla to robotaxis. Tesla's been talking a big game about revolutionizing manufacturing and being the largest automaker on earth, but I'm having trouble seeing why those legacy players that are taking the BEV opportunity seriously are as "doomed" as the Musk-ovites like to sneer. Since the Model Y launch, Tesla's delivered 1) a limited-utility stainless-steel doorstop to a market segment that expects vehicles to work for a living, and 2) a mid-cycle refresh to one sedan. Feels like they're getting dangerously close to a lot of their bluffs being called.
I do hope not, because Tesla pushed the world auto industry to an EV revolution that industry had long been resisting and I'd hope they still have much to offer, but lately it's seemed like a lot more sizzle than steak, with big set-piece events repeatedly delivering far less than expected and Musk's grandiose claims falling part ever faster. Maybe deliver the affordable car they'd long promised for the rest of us instead of chasing after the dwindling remainder of solvent fanbois.
Ford’s chief EV officer, Doug Field, said the new facility is “a key part of our broader strategy to build the best electric vehicle and technology development teams in the world.”
Field added that the Long Beach headquarters will “create a hub for the development of advanced electric vehicle technologies and products” alongside its Product Development Center in Dearborn and Greenfield labs location in Palo Alto.
According to Ford’s EV chief, the team is “developing vehicles that are as affordable as they are desirable.”
Ford was the second best-selling EV brand in the US through May. The Mustang Mach-E was the third best-selling EV, behind only Tesla’s Model Y and Model 3, while the F-150 Lightning pickup remained America’s top-selling pickup.
