Canton, GA – ePropulsion Americas, the global leader in marine electric propulsion systems and services, announced today its Navy 3.0 Evo has been selected to power the new 16-foot 2025 Paddle King Lo Pro Solar pontoon boat.
With a hard top canopy sporting dual 410-watt solar panels providing power, the Lo Pro Solar is fully equipped with a six horsepower ePropulsion electric motor, 48-volt lithium iron phosphate battery, and a battery monitor. One of the key benefits of the solar package is its unique self-sufficiency. Its solar array gives owners freedom and independence from gas or even shore power – perfect for isolated or remote locations and extended fun times. It is versatile, durable and affordable and the Solar’s roomy deck and new sun lounge seat make it great for fishing or a quiet sunset cruise.
“ePropulsion Navy motors are proven, reliable and effective and the perfect electric propulsion package for our 16-foot Lo Pro Solar boats,” said Tom Schneider, General Manager, Paddle King. “Offering our customers an environmentally friendly option of a solar powered, electric motor is a big draw for customers that want to have a quiet, exhaust-free time on the water. ePropulsion is the perfect partner for this endeavor and we look forward to continuing to work together on future models.”
“The Paddle King Lo Pro Solar fits a unique niche for customers that are on internal combustion restricted lakes or those that are looking for simply calm and relaxing cruising with family or friends,” said Tom Watson, President of ePropulsion Americas. “We are confident that their customers will enjoy the performance of the Navy 3.0 Evo motors and all of the features they provide.”
The Navy Evo is a light-duty outboard that is available in two power levels, 3kW and 6kW. The Navy 3.0 Evo has a brushless direct-drive motor – ensuring the entire range benefits from the high reliability and low operating noise of this technology.
