How long does the battery last on the arc sport?
Cruising around at lower speeds is sustainable for over 24 hours straight, whereas spending more time at high speeds will use the battery faster. On average, the boat should support 4-6 hours of active usage time, including plenty of towing. Can I use the Arc Sport in saltwater? Arc’s 225 kWh battery powers a 500 hp electric motor that provides near-instantaneous torque and smooth, rapid acceleration. Top speed clocks in at 40 mph, while the boat comfortably cruises around 35–36 mph. But what truly sets it apart is its ability to throw massive, tunable wakes for surfing and wakeboarding.The Arc Sport isn’t just an electric version of a traditional boat—it’s a radical rethinking of what a boat should be. Lean engineering, inspired by SpaceX and the EV sector, has produced a vessel that’s fast, quiet, intelligent, and easy to maintain.Electric Powertrain and Performance Arc’s 225 kWh battery powers a 500 hp electric motor that provides near-instantaneous torque and smooth, rapid acceleration. Top speed clocks in at 40 mph, while the boat comfortably cruises around 35–36 mph.
How long does an electric boat engine last?
Cruising at 50% speed strikes a perfect balance between speed and efficiency. At around 3 knots, your electric outboard battery will last approximately 6 hours, covering a range of 15 to 18 miles. This speed is ideal for leisurely exploration, fishing, or going back and forth to shore in a tender. Cruising around at lower speeds is sustainable for over 24 hours straight, whereas spending more time at high speeds will use the battery faster. On average, the boat should support 4-6 hours of active usage time, including plenty of towing.
Are arc boats electric?
Arc – 100% Electric Boats. Where are Arc boats made? Our boats are designed and built out of our factory in Los Angeles, CA.
What are the disadvantages of electric boats?
The biggest disadvantage of electric boats is their limited range. The energy density of the batteries is lower than that of diesel or gasoline. With the same space/weight, an electric boat cannot travel as far. With fewer moving parts than a traditional diesel or gasoline model, electric motors are more reliable and require less maintenance. They also produce zero exhaust emissions, making them environmentally friendly for boaters.
