360 kg

Suitable for your boat?
Is the Outwave XP18 outboard powerful enough for your boat? For this we look at the engine's thrust. The higher the thrust, the more weight the outboard motor can push into the water. This XP18 motor has a thrust of 18 lbs, which allows it to displace a maximum weight of 360 kg in the water. Does your boat, including passengers and everything you want to take with you, weigh no more than 360 kg? Then the Outwave XP18 is the perfect outboard motor for you.
Battery
For the Outwave XP18 motor, you need a 12 volt battery that is strong enough to produce 18 lbs of thrust. Choose a battery with a capacity of 18 amps/hour or higher, for example this 18Ah battery . However, a battery capacity of 18 amps/hour is the minimum; the higher the power, the further you will be able to sail. Note that you also need a battery charger to charge the battery after sailing.
Sailing speed
The XP18 is a perfect electric motor for quiet cruising. The exact sailing speed you achieve with the XP18 is difficult to state. Sailing speed depends on many factors such as the wind, the current, the weight of the boat, the gear you are sailing in, etc. However, you can assume an average speed of 3 to 4 km/h. You don't need a boat license to sail with this electric outboard motor.
Installation on the boat
You can attach the Outwave XP motor to the boat in two different ways, depending on the type of boat you have. You can either secure it with the mounting shank or clamp it.
✔ Mounting stem : you attach this to the intended loops on the back of the boat
✔ Clamping : on the transom or engine support, by tightening the mounting bolts
Many inflatables do not have mounting loops or a mirror on the back of the boat. Then you need a motor mount: a solid plank that you mount on the back of the boat, to which you can then clamp the outboard motor.
