Spirit 1.0 Evo is a portable 1kW electric outboard (equivalent to a 3hp gas motor). It features a large 1276Wh, integrated, lithium polymer battery for long range. It’s quiet, lightweight, and clean power.
Unlike it’s little brother, the Spirit 1.0 Plus, the Evo version offers hydrogeneration. Like regenerative braking on a Tesla, this extends the runtime/range by recharging the battery while sailing at speeds above above 4 knots. As such, the Spirit 1.0 Evo is ideally suited to sailboats up to 3,300lbs (1,500kg). Note that hydrogeneration only works with ePropulsion batteries.
Additional improvements above the Spirit 1.0 Plus include remote steering and remote wireless throttle capability, optional wireless remote safety wristband (connect up to 8), and a backlit display on the tiller with a richer set of real-time data. Choose the option with the top-mount or side-mount remote wireless throttle to use with a steering wheel rather than a tiller.
Like all ePropulsion motors, the Spirit 1.0 Evo is suitable for freshwater and saltwater, and because it requires no gasoline, it provides clean power with no emissions, no oil slicks and no noxious fumes. Stow in the trunk of your car without worry of spills or smell.
It’s also virtually silent, peaking at only 55dB on full throttle (which is as loud as a normal conversation). The Spirit 1.0 Evo is a direct drive motor so there are very few moving parts and no friction noise. This results an extremely quiet and lightweight (19kg/42lbs) motor that is virtually maintenance-free. Simply charge the battery from any standard 110V outlet or charge with the optional solar panel charger (even while motor is running) or from any 12V source with the 12V charger.

Try before you buy.
Rent per day or per week, and if you’d like to keep it, we’ll put 80% of the rental fee towards purchase.

Designed for portability.
Easy to carry. Compact, lightweight, and foldable. 20kg/44lbs including battery.

Maintenance-free.
Other than a fresh water rinse after use and keeping the electrical contacts clean, requires no regular maintenance or winterization.
No exhaust, oil slicks, emissions or fumes.
Stow in the trunk of your car without worry of spills or smell.

Suitable for freshwater and saltwater boating.

Hydrogeneration
Recharge as you sail.
Leave the Spirit Evo down while sailing, spinning propeller charges the battery. Does not work with third party batteries, and boat speed must be above 6 knots for the power generated to be meaningful.
ePropulsion is the first motor manufacturer to introduce hydrogenation into their motors, allowing them to travel further.

Tilt angle: 75%
4 trim angles: 0°, 7°, 14°, 21°
2-blade, 11” × 5.8” (280 mm × 147 mm) composite (nylon reinforced) propeller.
Spirit electric motors have a larger propellor than gas-driven 3HP motor because of the extreme torque from electric motors (you go faster at fewer RPMs).
3 different shaft lengths:
- Extra-short: 52.3cm/20.6″
- Short: 64.5cm/24.6” (most common)
- Long: 75cm/29.5”
For inflatable boats and motor boats, the short shaft is recommended. For sailboats the long shaft is usually the right one. To be sure, check out the ePropulsion guide “How to Find Your Shaft Length”.
Integrated, removable, lithium-ion polymer battery. Provides 75 minutes of full-speed runtime, 3-5 hours at cruising speeds, 10-12 hours of trolling. Chargeable from any standard 110V outlet, or can be charged with a solar panel. Batteries can be swapped out in seconds. And it floats!
Built-in tiller handle. Folds down completely, can tilt upwards slightly (not removable).
Simple stepless throttle control: the throttle hand feel is clear, smooth and enjoyable. Turn clockwise to go forward, counter-clockwise for reverse (right-handed mode).
No need to spin the motor around to go in reverse, which is the case with many small gasoline outboards.
Easy right-handed or left-handed operation (swap direction of clockwise and counterclockwise rotation).
Max power output adjustment: With a smaller full throttle power, it’s safer for kids and rental boats.
Magnetic kill switch for safety. Attach tether to the driver…if it detaches, the motor shuts off instantly.
Electric start: press one button and you’re ready to go. No more tiring pull cord start.
Digital LCD display provides current voltage, watts, battery level and remaining runtime
Anti-corrosion anodized coating and powder coating protects the base material from corrosion.
Charging port works with both AC charger and solar charger.
Battery pull latch makes battery installation easy and quick.

Integrated, removable battery.
(And it floats).

Cheap to run. No fuel costs.
- Easy: Batteries are installed and can be swapped out easily in seconds.
- Clever: battery floats if it’s accidentally dropped in the water.
- Flexible: use genuine ePropulsion batteries or other third-party 48V batteries (including e-bike batteries). Note that the Evo’s hydrogeneration feature requires genuine ePropulsion batteries.
High energy density, compact size.
- 75 minutes of runtime at full-speed (about 10km/h or 6.2 mph)
- Small decreases in speed make a huge difference in range (3-5 hours at cruising speeds, 10-15 hours of trolling).
- Exact run time depends on a variety of factors including sea conditions and hull weight and shape.
- Can use in conjunction with an external battery for greater range.

Frequently-Asked Questions
What’s the difference between “pre-order” and “special order”?
OceansEV generally keeps most popular products in stock (however, very popular products like the eLite and Spirit 1.0 Plus will often be out-of-stock in periods of high demand).
If a product is out of stock, you can pre-order it, which ensures the products will be reserved for you when they arrive in our next scheduled inventory shipment. Inventory arrives usually on a 4 week interval in the high-season months (May to October).
Certain less popular products or product variations like the longshaft version of eLite and longshaft Spirit 1.0 Plus are not generally kept in stock. For these and any other product that is not currently in stock, you have the option to special order. When you place a special order, we’ll order the product from our supplier right away, just for you, rather than add it to our next scheduled inventory shipment.
To summarize, if the product you want is not in stock currently:
- If you can wait for it for up to a month, pre-order it (meaning just add it to the cart and checkout normally). We’ll ship it to you as soon as it arrives (or contact you to pick up).
- If you can’t wait for it, add the special order surcharge along with the product to your cart. We’ll place the order with our supplier and have it shipped to us immediately.
You can also elect to get notified when an out-of-stock product you are interested in arrives at our warehouse. However, someone else may have pre-ordered it so it still may not be available for you, and you’ll need to wait for the next inventory shipment. If it’s something you definitely want, it’s better to pre-order or special order it.

The current price of the Remigo One at OceansEV is $4,290.00
Is Oceans EV an official ePropulsion dealer in Canada?
Yes, OceansEV is the official ePropulsion dealer for Western Canada.

What is the warranty on ePropulsion outboard motors?
All ePropulsion electric outboard motors come with a standard 2-year warranty, with an additional year of warranty protection on all models except eLite if you register your motor with ePropulsion, for a total of 3 years.
How do I determine the proper shaft length for my ePropulsion outboard?
The shaft length you require depends on the transom height of your boat. Take a look at ePropulsion’s shaft length guide to determine which shaft length you need. The Spirit 1.0 Plus is available with an extra short, short and long shaft. The Spirit 1.0 Evo and Navy Evo series are available with a short or long shaft.
Note that shaft lengths of electric outboards are measured differently than combustion outboards, so it’s important to double-check which shaft length is ideal for your boat.
Multiple ways to charge.
- Standard charger (included) plugs into standard 110V AC outlet, and takes 8.5 hours to charge from 0% to 100%.
- Fast charger charges from 0% to 100% in 3 hours.
