June 2, 2026

ePropulsion Americas, a global leader in marine electric propulsion systems and services, has announced that its latest electric outboard, Spirit 2, has been named one of the 2026 Boating Industry Top Products by the editors of the publication.
 
Organized and judged by the editorial team at Boating Industry magazine, the 13th annual Top Products awards exclusively recognized 56 of the marine industry’s newest and most innovative products and services launched in the last year. To be eligible for consideration, products or services must have been introduced or significantly updated since January 2025. The Boating Industry editors said the winning products were chosen based on many factors such as innovation, their impact on the industry, and how they help advance technology in their category.
 
“We’re grateful to the team at Boating Industry for selecting the Spirit 2 as one this year’s Top Products,” Tom Watson, president of ePropulsion Americas. “Spirit 2 represents the next evolution of ePropulsion’s compact electric outboard technology, and we’re thrilled with the recognition its garnering across the industry. It reflects not only the performance of Spirit 2, but our entire team’s long-term commitment to delivering practical, high-impact electric solutions that carry the marine industry into the future.”
 
Designed with real world usability in mind, Spirit 2 combines a 23.5-pound motor with a 23-pound battery, alongside features such as a detachable clamp, foldable tiller and quick connect battery system for ease of transport and installation. Functional upgrades including shallow water trimming, 90-degree tilt, integrated steering lock and a safety kill switch further enhance everyday operation. Powered by a 2kW motor and featuring a 3kW Boost Mode, the system delivers enhanced thrust when required while maintaining the quiet and efficient performance electric propulsion is known for. A 1539Wh quick connect battery, the largest in its class, provides extended range in a highly portable format.
