ePropulsion to power Highfield Boats’ new electric tender vessels

Highfield Boats has selected ePropulsion to power the latest models in its electric tender range. The expanding range features three new all-electric models – the CL310E, CL360E and CL380E – which will be powered by ePropulsion’s Navy Series of electric outboard motors.

Highfield has chosen ePropulsion’s 3kW Navy 3.0 Evo to power the CL310E, which has a range of up to 49 miles, while the other two models are powered by the 6kW Navy 6.0 Evo, offering ranges of up to 72 miles. Both motors are brushless and direct-drive, ensuring the range benefits from high reliability, low maintenance and low operating noise, as well as being lightweight and compact.

“We are thrilled to be a part of Highfield Boats’ journey to expand the offer of electric propulsion,” said Danny Tao, co-founder and CEO of ePropulsion. “These new tenders are incredibly exciting and offer an on-the-water experience that is unique, fun and eco-friendly.

“With the inclusion of three new zero-emission models to the ever-expanding Classic E range, eco-conscious boaters have their choice of tender as our partnership with Highfield continues to meet various needs of the marine market.”

“We are proud of introducing the clean footprint of the Classic E series to our tender range,” added Mathilde Delfour, managing director, Europe for Highfield Boats. “We developed these latest three models in response to the acclaim we received from the CL340, and customer demand for a greater variety of sizes. The introduction of electric boats is one of many steps that we are taking to balance environmental responsibility with the enjoyment of boating.”
