Frequently Asked Questions

What power is required?

The Trend 8.0 is suitable for both small dinghies and larger boats up to approximately 45 feet. As a rule of thumb, depending on the hull shape and operating area (with reserves for wind and waves), approximately 1-2 kW per ton of cruising weight can be applied. For precise sizing, please contact a specialist dealer or Aquamot.

The driving time naturally depends on the capacity and quality of the batteries.
Below are examples with the Aquamot Longlife Deep-Cycle batteries.

Half load05 h 30 min03 h 00 min
Full load02 h 15 min01 h 20 min

Of course, there are many ways to increase or decrease the range. In principle, however, only traction batteries should be used, which have also been designed for higher currents over a longer period (ATTENTION: no starter batteries or semi-traction batteries). In addition, a minimum capacity of at least 110Ah is recommended. All batteries should have the same capacity in order to achieve the highest possible service life. Always ask your Aquamot dealer or Aquamot about the capacity design beforehand.

In general, everything is included in the drive package except batteries and charger. Thus, with remote steering, the driving lever and on-board computer are also supplied, with tiller control this is integrated into the motor unit. The cable lengths are standardized (3m main lines, 30cm the battery brackets, 6m to the display and driving lever). A cable extension can of course be supplied.

The warranty period is 2 years.
