Where is it better to use electric motors for inflatable boats?

Electromotors for inflatable boats are intended primarily for fishing enthusiasts, since most fish species do not like noise and a large wave. They are indispensable for the extraction of asp or pike, which are famous for their caution. To these types do not approach the gasoline engines, even if you set the smallest speed. In addition, the electric version is great for catching trolling, when maneuvers are required in shallow water at low speeds.

They are used in Europe

Electromotors for inflatable boats are incomparable in power with gasoline analogues. They give the boat a significantly lower speed (about 5-6 km per hour in the fifth gear), so experienced miners equip their boats with both options. These devices are good for moving around small rivers, since they do not pick up waves that destroy the banks. Due to such qualities in some European countries in small reservoirs, the use of gasoline engines is already prohibited, and there are rumors that similar measures are possible in Russia.

Electromotors for inflatable boats can be useful today for the extraction of carp on lakes, where the delivery of gear and bait on boats is permitted. Many such places have restrictions for movement mechanisms, except for electric ones. The management of the boat motor of this class is elementary. All manipulations are made with one lever, which allows the boat to move forward, stand still and swim back (1-3 ways depending on the model).

You can swim by the sea

Electromotors for inflatable boats are light and high-tech devices. For example, the sample "Kangl 44 LBS" has a 120 cm dejwood, a special screw of the class "non-locking", a shaft of stainless steel, LED lighting at the bottom of the tiller. It can be fixed in one way or another depending on the height of the transom. The product is intended for light boats operating in sea water. Its submersible elements are provided with an anodized coating to prevent corrosion.

Joint operation

Are electromotors used for inflatable boats? Reviews say that experienced fishermen prefer joint operation of electric and petrol options. This is due to the fact that the first has a power of less than one horsepower and can pull a boat with a weight of up to 600 kg in the absence of strong wind and excitement. It is believed that keeping the course at a wind of more than 7-8 meters per second is quite difficult.

How expensive are electric motors for inflatable boats? The price of these products depends on the brand, capacity, additional functions. In particular, the motor from "Intex" (series 68631) costs about 7500 rubles. This model can be used in both sea and fresh water. It weighs eleven kilograms, has a length of 50 cm. The motor's power is 480 W, it makes it possible to move at 5 speeds forward and 3 speeds back. Users believe that 2-3 speeds are optimal, as well as a gradual speed switching, which promotes the rational use of electric charge in the battery.
