Newport NT300 full review - low cost electric outboard motor with good range. I spend some time with the new electric outboard motor and review the Newport Vessels NT 300 3 hp outboard. Likes, dislikes, speed test when compared to a 55 lb thrust Minn Kota trolling motor, weight, the features, range, and run time. I also show a cost comparison to a similar size Mercury 4 stroke gas outboard engine.
The Newport NT300 electric 3 hp outboard motor directly competes with other small electric outboard motors like the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus, Mercury Avator 7.5e, and the Torqeedo Travel 1103C electric outboard motors that are all very similar in power and capability. The difference with the Newport NT 300 is that it does not use or require a proprietary battery and is set up like a trolling motor - always requiring a separate battery (or batteries) of your choosing at 36 volts.
After several trips with the Newport NT300 over a few weeks I am sharing my thoughts of what I like, dislike and learned about this new 3 hp electric outboard motor. The Newport Vessels NT300 3hp electric outboard is not a trolling motor and not meant to compete with larger horsepower outboard engines. This electric outboard is only well suited to compete with 2.5 - 3.5 hp outboards and is ideally suited for smaller boats and shorter range like other similar types and size electric and gasoline outboards.
Full disclosure: Newport Vessels provided me with this motor and battery but I am not under any obligation or contract to produce content, endorse or recommend their products.
A few weeks after making this video, I got a chance to try out the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 Plus and that video is here: [ Ссылка ]
