Cruise motors are the top choice for electric propulsion among motorboats, dinghies, and commercial users—offering reliable performance with smart, integrated technology. Every Cruise system features a built-in GPS and onboard computer with a display showing speed, input power, state of charge, and remaining range. The streamlined pylon is lightweight, low-drag, and equipped with advanced helical gears for quiet, efficient operation.
The Cruise 3.0 R is a 24-volt electric outboard equivalent to a 6 HP gas motor—ideal for displacement hulls up to 3 tons or sailboats up to 30 feet. Paired with a Power 24-3500 lithium battery, it delivers over an hour of runtime at full throttle and extended cruising time at lower speeds.
Need more power or range? Expand your setup with up to eight Power 24-3500 batteries. The Cruise 3.0 R is designed for remote steering and pairs best with the 1918-00 standard throttle or an upgraded TorqLink throttle (sold separately; TorqLink gateway required).

*Torqeedo measures static thrust using internationally recognized ISO standards. Conventional trolling motors often use different methods that tend to show higher thrust values. To compare fairly, add approximately 50% to Torqeedo's static thrust figures when comparing with traditional trolling motor ratings.
