What you provide
A hull or complete boat up to 6 m long. Not sure which boat? We can help you find one.
Early-adopter partnership
In return for EECA-supported early-adopter pricing, we ask early customers to share how their boat performs on social media, carry an Estroke sticker on the hull, and let interested boaties in their region have a look during the first three months.
A fixed price for your boat
Every hull is different, so we price each conversion individually. Tell us about your boat and we'll send you a fixed-price proposal, with no surprises once work starts.
Our first customer boats also qualify for early-adopter support through the EECA Low Emission Transport Fund. Ask us whether places are still available.

Est. 50 km per charge
Our trial boats use around 1.1 kWh per km at 20 mph, giving an estimated 50 km per charge with reserve. Range drops with more people or towing, and improves at trolling speeds. Every hull is different, so we'll give you an estimate for yours.
