Outboards

Whether you’re repowering a family runabout or shopping your first kicker for an inflatable dinghy, our specialists match horsepower, shaft length, and controls so you leave the dock confident. This page is the crossroads of our wider marine motors catalogue, so take a spin, compare options, and reach out with questions — we answer fast.

Why Choose an Outboard?

• Versatility. Swap engines between hulls, raise the prop in skinny water, or remove the motor completely for winter storage.
• Easy service. A seasonal oil change on a Tohatsu four-stroke beats tearing up cockpit floors to reach an inboard.
• Space saving. Free up cockpit real estate for coolers, dive tanks, and kids’ gear.
• Upgrade-ready. Bolt patterns haven’t changed in decades, so moving from a carbureted 40 hp to a 60 hp EFI is a weekend project.

Gasoline or Electric?

Most buyers still lean on proven Tohatsu outboard engines for raw torque and long range, yet the surge in lithium tech means a growing crowd now demands silent power. If you need long offshore legs or tow sports, browse our gasoline engines. Want emission-free cruising on calm lakes? Jump straight to our electric outboard motors section — or dive into alternative formats like a hydrodynamic pod drive boat or low-CG marine inboard engines. Whichever path you choose, every purchase can be bundled with a battery powered boat motor energy package to maximize range.

Where These Marine Outboard Motors Shine

• Inflatable Boats & RIBs. Clamp a 3- to 20-hp Portable Outboard Motor onto any of our inflatable boats for beach launches and cottage hops.
• Fishing Tinnies & Bass Rigs. Instant throttle response keeps you on the bite, while portable outboards team up with dedicated trolling motors for whisper-quiet lure presentations.
• Sailboat Tenders & Yachts. Lightweight portables stow in a locker, while high-output 25–60 hp rigs power large RIBs loaded with provisions.
• Commercial Skiffs & Rescue Craft. Heavy-duty 90–140 hp four-strokes deliver the reliability fleet managers demand.
• Eco-Tour Boats. Electric units glide through protected mangroves without scaring wildlife or violating noise caps.

Featured Brands & Flagship Lines

ePropulsion

Direct-drive brushless architecture means one moving part — so vibration is nearly zero and maintenance drops to an annual anode swap. The popular Spirit 1.0 Plus and Navy 6.0 Evo even regenerate while under sail, extending range for blue-water cruisers.

Parsun

Meet the Joy series — two punchy electric outboards built for everyday boating. The Joy 1.2 squeezes roughly 3 hp from its integrated 1 440 Wh lithium battery — perfect for dinghies, fishing skiffs, and sailboat tenders.

Need extra thrust? Step up to the Joy 6.0; its remote battery drives a 9.9 hp-equivalent motor that moves larger runabouts and work skiffs with ease. Both models arrive pre-rigged with a tiller throttle, digital display, and a five-year parts warranty — fully supported through our Toronto service hub.

RIM Drive Technology

The ring-motor design eliminates the central shaft, slicing weeds instead of snagging them — a game-changer for kayaks, tenders, and underwater scooters. Steerable and fixed variants start at just 5 kg fully rigged.

TEMO

The French “electric scull” re-imagines portable outboard motors. Weighing under 5 kg, the TEMO 450 slips into a paddle sleeve yet pushes a loaded dinghy upcurrent with ease — ideal for sailors who don’t want to haul gasoline jerry cans.

ThrustMe

Norwegian engineering meets feather-light packaging. The Kicker’s integrated 915-Wh battery delivers two hours of full-throttle runtime yet weighs only 12 kg — all with a wireless wrist-strap throttle for SUPs and micro-skiffs.

Tohatsu

Tohatsu remains our flagship combustion partner, covering everything from 2.5 hp portables to 250 hp V-6 fuel-injected beasts. Parts are stocked coast-to-coast, so service is never far away.

Eco-Friendly Electric Outboard Motors: Quiet and Portable Solutions

If you’re looking for an environmentally friendly alternative to traditional gas engines, consider exploring our range of electric outboard motors. Ideal for smaller vessels, fishing boats, and dinghies, electric motors offer quiet operation and easy maintenance. Lightweight and portable options such as the innovative TEMO Electric Outboards provide unmatched convenience, especially for quick trips and shallow-water navigation.

Selecting the Right Package

1. Horsepower & Weight. Match prop thrust to hull capacity; a 3-m RIB can often plane with 15 hp, while a 6-m cuddy may need 90 hp.
2. Shaft Length. Verify transom height; long-shaft kits tame following seas on deep-V hulls.
3. Controls. Tiller steer for open boats, side-mount for center consoles, or binnacle dual-lever for twin rigs.
4. Rigging & Cables. We stock looms, fuel lines, propellers, and NMEA 2000 gateways so your new outboard motor talks to existing gauges.
5. Transport Aids. Heavy marine outboard motors move safely on folding dollies — ask our team for sizing tips.

Conversion & Repowering Services

Upgrading a tired four-stroke to clean lithium torque? Our in-house technicians handle design, battery bay fabrication, and warranty paperwork. Explore recent installs on our electric-boat conversion page or book a live video consult. We’ll estimate range, charger load, and ROI before the first bolt is turned.
