Ecomar Propulsion is excited to announce the launch of the new, all electric “Årka” range of outboards

Årka outboards (pronounced Orca) are fully modular, high power units that seamlessly replace conventional motors. With higher torque, lower RPM and almost silent running, Årka outboards are designed specifically for use by commercial operators.

The patented design incorporates fully recyclable aluminium modules that can be swapped with simple hand tools and includes a cassette gearbox that radically reduces cost and maintenance times. The entire machine is 90% recyclable and 100% zero emission.

Paired with a range of batteries and a proprietary fly by wire control system, the Årka range has been created to make the transition to clean marine a simple, pain-free experience. With full integration and multiple battery options, complete with GARMIN & NMEA displays, the range delivers a “ready to go” package suited to almost any situation.

The modular design radically reduces the cost of shipping and repair.  Spare modules can be box shipped within 24 hours.  The design aims to keep boats operating with minimum fuss or down time. For customers in remote locations, the modular design means that shipping becomes as easy as possible.

The 4 core modules: powerhead, mid-section, gearbox housing and transom mount can all be removed and replaced using only simple tools and the modular design enables the option to upgrade at any time. High voltage components and the motor are located in a sealed powerhead and the unique cassette gearbox can be easily swapped in a couple of hours if you wish to upgrade to a different power version.

One machine, offering multiple power options and futureproof value.

Ecomar Propulsion offer a 100% replacement, no quibble guarantee for 2 years on all moving mechanical and electrical parts. Arka’s also come with a full environmental assessment that even tells you what materials each component is made from and how to recycle them at the end of life.

Årka models are able to use bigger propellors than conventional outboards for higher torque operations. The emphasis on endurance rather than speed means that Årka motors are able to deliver performance where it matters most in commercial operations. High speed options are available.

Årka outboards have been matched with a range of lithium-ion batteries, beginning with a “flat pack” design for small craft starting at 44.4kWh or a higher energy 62kWh with no limit to the size of battery that can be provided. All batteries are certified and are calibrated to provide maximum efficiency.

Årka represent a new way to power commercial vessels. Emphasising reliability, ruggedness and range. The Årka range is designed to speed your profits as well as your boat.
