ThrustMe kicker and cruiser
Introducing
Based in Norway, ThrustMe is a specialist in electrical propulsion solutions. The company has introduced the UK market to its lightest electric outboards, the kicker and the cruiser.
Kicker – perfect for ship-to-shore tenders
Overview
Lightweight and compact, the kicker lends itself perfectly as a short-range propulsion system for a tender that will get you to and from the shore with no fuss and no noise. A fully enclosed propeller is powered by a 1000W brushless motor coupled to an integral 259Wh lithium battery. At only 4.4kg the kicker is light enough to pass up from a tender to a yacht single-handedly.
