Hi to all , does anybody has experience on a 3m tender with this engine ? Will be ok ? Don’t care if it will plane , just if it is ok . The current I’m using is the Honda 2.3 hp

Could be a bit underpowered. But certainly depends what your expectations are.

Can I recommend the ePropulsion Spirit 1.0 PLUS?
I bought it after going through various reviews and decided then against the Torqeedo.
It pushes my DinghyGo with about 4.5 knots according to GPS.

Reasons:

- Cheaper than Torqeedo
- The battery of the ePropulsion floats! Big benefit IMHO.
- No finicky plastic pin required to attach battery which will ultimately be lost to the sea.

It has served me well and has survived 12h drowned in the harbor at 3m depth after falling off the boat in a storm. 😀

We use the 603 for Quicksilver 320 AIR DECK and it is totally ok.
