  • A little more boat motor conversion work here on the channel. I tried this 2,000 watt motor in an old Sears 5 hp shell. It worked but I wanted to see how it would perform in a bigger case. So, I found a 45 hp Sears outboard for $30 on FB Markeplace and did the build.

    Fun stuff.
    Thanks for taking a look!

    Those motors produce a lot of torque at the low to mid range of the rpm, a bigger prop helps to use that 2000 watts for efficiently. Gas outboards have high rpm output with the torque coming in at the higher rpm. BLDC or just DC motors can turn a big prop easily. Big prop, deeper angle. Paddle that water out of the way.

    Looks great and great weather for splashing!
    You need a huuuge electric motor for that thing to get her on plane! Nice job…

    Thanks for this! Great video and very much what I have been looking for.
    I wonder what your thoughts are about this: sound/noise level - It seems like the immersed motors (Spirit 1.0) are much quieter than the Ebike-headed motor (which would make some sense.)

      Top mounted electric motors are definitely louder. Motors mounted in the hub under the water are a joy to use.

    Very cool! Could you link or mention the motor you bought on amazon? Thanks!

      Thanks. These kits are all over Amazon and eBay or directly from Vevor.
