A truly innovative electric outboard motor, the RemigoOne was the first design to incorporate the battery into the motor in a single sealed unit (a design that inspired ePropulsion when creating the eLite). Designed from the outset to break away from all traditional outboard motor styles, the RemigoOne is essentially an electric rudder. It’s also the lightest and most portable 3hp electric motor available, at only 12 kg (26 lbs), and a 2-inch wide body that lets you carry it one-handed close to your body.
Unlike virtually every other electric outboard on the market, the RemigoOne is manufactured in Europe (Slovenia—not China!)
This slim, all-in-one design offers several advantages over other electric motors. First, it makes it incredibly easy to maneuver, as the rudder shape combined with propulsion allows your boat to quickly turn and makes for a very tight turning radius. Secondly, it provides extreme durability. The RemigoOne features a watertight unibody constructed from marine-grade aluminium, providing durability and resistance to corrosion. It boasts an IP67 rating, ensuring protection against water ingress (even at a depth of 1 metre for 30 minutes), and includes anodes for additional corrosion protection in saltwater conditions. Controls are built into the motor rather than extended with wiring to the tiller, for fewer moving parts and failure points.
The rugged and simple design extends to the all-metal transom mount, tiller, controls and other hardware. The special two-part transom bracket design enables you to securely mount and detach the motor without the need to ever remove the bracket from the boat. A simple metal locking pin keeps the mounted motor securely in place.
The motor is operated by just two push buttons on the top of the motor: one for increasing forward speed and another for decreasing forward speed and increasing reverse speed. If it sounds complicated, you’re overthinking it—it’s incredibly intuitive and easy to use. Pressing both buttons together stops the motor (as does removing the magnetic safety kill switch) and you can also press and hold a button to increase or decrease speed rapidly. A wireless (Bluetooth) remote is available which can be mounted at the end of the tiller, or held separate from the motor.
More smart design went into the shaft clamp which can be loosened and moved to different positions to make the exact shaft length you need to get the ideal propulsion for your boat (top of propeller should be 5-6 cm under the surface of the water). This means that there’s only one size of RemigoOne, which will fit every boat.
If you have concerns about a fully enclosed, non-replaceable battery, note that Remigo uses premium LG cells, rated for 1000 cycles (before they reach 80% of original capacity). What this means is that if you’re charging it each day 0% to 100% for 100 days per season, it will last for 10 years before experiencing significant capacity loss. At the end of the battery life the outboard can be returned (to OceansEV) for a new battery to be fitted.
The RemigoOne can achieve a top speed of approximately 5 knots, offering a range of about 5 nautical miles over 1 hour. At a cruising speed of 3 knots, it can cover up to 14 nautical miles in approximately 4 hours. For extended journeys, operating at an economy speed of 2 knots allows for a range of up to 30 nautical miles over 15 hours.
The RemigoOne Neo is identical to the RemigoOne except for:
Rent per day or per week, and if you’d like to keep it, we’ll put 80% of the rental fee towards purchase.Â
Easy to carry. Compact and lightweight at 12kg/26lbs, it’s the lightest 3hp electric motor available.
Other than a fresh water rinse after use, requires no regular maintenance or winterization.
Stow in the trunk of your car without worry of spills or smell.
Optional, detachable, wireless (Bluetooth) speed and direction control.
Tiller locks in 3 different positions (0°, 90° and 180°). At 180° (folded down) the motor is perfectly balanced on the tiller for carrying. At 0° (pictured) the motor is locked from turning, allowing you to use your boat’s rudder to steer and the optional remote to control speed and direction.
Innovative 2-part transom mounting system. The mount stays attached to your boat, while the motor attaches and detaches simply and locks in place. All-metal design—no plastic!
For locking RemigoOne on the boat, use two standard padlocks: one goes through the mounting console, the other through the tightening clamps on the bracket.
4 trim positions
Gasket-sealed charging port, LED display (remaining charge and speed level) and intuitive two-button control interface.
Stepless shaft length adjustment. S to XL, or 38cm (15″) to 59cm (23″) shaft lengths in one outboard.
Marin-grade, aluminum unibody casing with IP67 watertight rating above the waterline, IP69 below the waterline. Entire unit can be safely submerged to up to 1m for 30 minutes.Â
High-efficiency, 1,000W direct-drive, brushless DC motor.
Integrated 1,085 Wh Li-ion battery and smart battery management system. Premium battery cells rated for 1,000 cycles before they drop to 80% of initial capacity.
Amazingly lightweight at only 12kg (26.5lbs) and impossibly thin, The RemigoOne packs a tremendous amount of range and thrust in a tiny package.
Especially impressive is that despite the minimal weight, it’s built almost entirely out of metal. Only the propeller (glass fiber-reinforced polyamide), control faceplate and handle grip made from plastic composites.

All figures provided by Remigo. Actual run time, speed, and range of the RemigoOne will vary based on several factors, such as the weight and shape of the boat, weight of people and gear on board, and environmental conditions like wind, waves, and current.
There are a number of factors that can impact the lifespan of your ePropulsion Spirit battery, which include:
Electric outboards eliminate the need for oil changes, fuel filter replacements, and spark plug maintenance, making them significantly easier to care for than combustion outboards.
ePropulsion electric outboards require minimal regular upkeep. Maintenance primarily involves rinsing with freshwater after it has been in saltwater.
When used regularly during the season, it’s advisable to lightly coat the electrical contacts with WD40 once a month. Ensure you cover the cable ends and Spirit battery ports with caps when disconnected.
Similar to gasoline outboards, ePropulsion models come with zinc anodes that should be replaced after significant wear. However, electric outboards don’t need winterizing, though proper battery storage is essential. Taking care of the battery of your electric outboard is crucial for its longevity.
Electric outboards don’t require winterization, but the battery should be charged to about 80% before winter storage. It is also advised to check the battery’s charge state every three months during long periods of inactivity.
Inspect the electrical connections of your motor for any corrosion or loose connections periodically. There are other similar maintenance duties you must should for an electric boat motor that you do for the traditional gas motors like checking the propellers and storing it properly.
Overall, electric outboard maintenance demands considerably less effort than that of gas boat motors.
Yes, all ePropulsion outboards are designed for use in saltwater. ePropulsion uses high-quality, aerospace-grade aluminum alloy, which is naturally highly-resistant to corrosion, as the base material.
On top of the aluminum alloy are two protective coatings. An anodic oxide coating (anodizing) is applied to aluminum alloy, and then it’s powder coated.
Pod drives require additional corrosion protection since they remain submerged in saltwater for years at a time. A hard anodic oxidation coating and Teflon coating to replace the normal anodic oxide coating and the powder coating.
To improve the connector durability, Spirit 1.0 Plus and Spirit 1.0 Evo feature a metal connector between the power cable and the battery. The base material is stainless steel, and PVD (Physical vapor deposition) processing is applied to the connector. PVD coating is harder and more corrosion resistant than coatings applied by a standard electroplating process. So after hundreds of times connecting and unplugging, the metal connector can still be corrosion-resistant.
Sacrificial zinc anodes add further corrosion protection, and can be easily replaced as needed.
Don’t keep your outboard immersed in saltwater permanently. Remove it from the water after each use and rinse it with fresh water. It’s so light and quick to remove (and even quicker if it’s an eLite!) and there is no fuel smell or fumes to worry about, so there’s really no excuse not to stow away indoors once it’s dry.
It’s also important to avoid scratches that could damage the protective coatings. If you happen to scratch the motor body, contact us (and include a photo of it) for inspection. Early damage control and repair will prevent it from getting worse.
At full throttle, you can expect to have the battery last about an hour, taking you about 9 kms. In real-world use (one doesn’t typically run the motor at full throttle the entire time), a runtime of 2-4 hours is typical, giving you a range of 15 to 26 kms.
The RemigoOne does not include a hydrogeneration feature. If this is important to you, you may want to consider the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Evo.
Unfortunately, the RemigoOne cannot be connected to external batteries like the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus and Evo can. Once the battery is depleted, you will need to recharge it to continue using it.
