Types of Outboard Motors

Once you’ve got the perfect boat, your work might not be over yet. Or maybe you’re trying to figure out what that last deciding factor is that’ll help you make the final decision. That’s when it’s time to turn your attention to the engine. Getting the right engine can make a big difference in your boating experience and you might find outboard motors are the best option for you. Read on to learn more and stop by Riva Motorsports and Marine of the Keys in Key Largo, Florida to chat with one of our experienced professionals about what to expect from these machines.
 

Trolling Outboards

Trolling outboards tend to be supplemental units, or rather they only help the primary motor instead of driving the whole boat. They’re popular among fishers who like to drag a line out behind their moving craft, hence the name “trolling outboard.” They’re still completely self-contained, so you won’t have to fight them on the water and they’re going to give you that extra support you need.
 

Electric Outboards

Like their name implies (and unlike your next options), these motors are powered by electric batteries. This can mean they’re a lot cleaner for the environment and often much quieter than the average outboard motor. You can even find solar powered options for a real environmental boost. The biggest downside is that they’re often much more expensive, but they can also be cheaper to operate.
 

Fuel Types

When you’re talking about outboard motors powered by more traditional means, you’re probably looking at propane outboards and gasoline outboards. Each is powered by the fuel type associated with their name, although there are advantages to choosing one over the other.

Gasoline-powered outboards are often more powerful, packing the highest speeds. You’ll also have more options, although they’re not good for the environment and they’re often the loudest options. Propane-powered outboards are relatively new, so there won’t be as many options available to you, but they offer lower emissions and higher fuel stability, which also makes them more reliable. 

Hopefully, this helped you figure out which outboard motor is right for you, but maybe it just showed you there were more options than you initially thought. Whether you’re looking to make a purchase, or you’re just looking for some additional help, stop by Riva Motorsports and Marine of the Keys and let one of our experienced staff help you with all your boating-related needs.
