How fast does the ePropulsion Spirit 2 go?
Back to FAQsTop speed depends on the size, weight, and hull design of your boat, but for a typical tender or inflatable in calm conditions:
- Standard mode: approximately 8–12 km/h
- Sport Mode (peak power): up to 12–15 km/h on lighter boats
Because water resistance increases exponentially with speed, achieving higher speeds requires disproportionately more power. A lighter, flat-bottomed boat will reach higher speeds than a heavier displacement hull at the same throttle setting.
For comparison, the Spirit 1.0 Plus (3 HP equivalent) typically achieves 6–9 km/h on similar boats. The Spirit 2’s higher power output delivers a noticeably faster and more responsive ride, particularly when loaded or in adverse conditions.
