The size and type of electric yacht / motor-boat motor that you choose will depend on a number of factors, including the size and weight of your boat, the type of boating that you will be doing, and your budget.

Here are some of the things to consider when choosing an electric yacht / motor-boat motor:

• Power: The power of the motor is measured in kilowatts (kW). You will need a more powerful motor for a larger or heavier yacht / motor-boat.
• Voltage: The voltage of the motor is measured in volts (V). Higher voltage motors are more powerful, but they also require more expensive batteries.
• Battery capacity: The battery capacity is measured in kilowatt-hours (kWh). You will need a larger battery capacity for a longer range.
• Range: The range of an electric yacht is the distance that it can travel on a single charge. The range will depend on the size and efficiency of the motor, the battery capacity, and the speed of the yacht.
• Charging time: The charging time for an electric yacht battery will depend on the size of the battery and the type of charger that you use.
• Cost: Electric yacht motors are typically more expensive than gasoline or diesel engines. However, they can save you money on fuel costs and maintenance costs in the long run.
