Reviews
The person at the other end of the website chat feature was one of the owners. !!! I told him the model of outboard I wanted, and he explained that a less expensive model was a better fit. I was at my marina with no car, and the owner delivered my motor in the back seat of his car! This is a small company doing things right. Highly recommended.
Kudos to Greg and Eric for being so helpful regarding my recent purchase of a Spirit 1.0 EV0.
Needed an urgent part, to save a fishing weekend and the guys came through superbly!
Recently purchased an ePropulsion outboard motor from Oceans eV. Terrific, friendly service and very responsive to emails and phone calls. Their "try-before-you-buy" program was excellent as it allowed me to test the motor on my dinghy before committing to the purchase.
Exceptional service!! I ordered online and receive regular communication from Eric and Greg on the status of my order. There was an issue with the carrier and Greg immediately went in to the carriers office to get the issue resolved and I still received my order when expected. I would definitely do business with OceansEV again!
I recently purchased an ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus from Oceans EV in Victoria. My initial impressions are very positive. 1. Packaging good 2. Unit weights - excellent, very manageable as expected 3. Charging was simple and effective 4. Documentation is clear 5. Bags we’re very good for protection and carrying. There are several outside zipper pockets but they are are too small to carry the charger. I would have liked a dedicated zipper pocket for the charger vs just putting it in the motor bag. 6. Dealer interaction and service has been excellent. Eric was very accommodating to my needs and prompt with follow up. 7. But the real test is on the water, and I am delighted with the operation and performance of the motor. It's easy to use, quiet (almost soundless) and has outstanding range at moderate speeds. This is an expensive motor but I feel like I got what I was looking for. This is a high quality product and I was happy with the interactions with Eric and OceansEV.
Having the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus as the outboard for our sailboat tender has really made a day on the water easier and more pleasant. We have used the motor for over two years on many great trips. Eventually, we had a small problem that Oceans EV convinced the factory to repair under warranty, even though the motor was purchased through another dealer, and the warranty had expired. Eric of OCEANS EV delivered the repaired motor to our door after only a few days downtime. We could not ask for better service!
Was so thrilled to have a local dealer like Greg and Eric of Oceans EV. I ordered the Epropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus through them here in Victoria, B.C. and Greg himself delivered it to my door at my convenience. After a few hours on the water I was so impressed with the power, feel and quality of the outboard. Money well spent and with local guys that have my back! Thank you Oceans EV!!! EASY 5 STARS!!!
