Törkmar specialises in producing high-torque Permanent Magnet AC (PMAC) electric motors for boats on inland waterways.

Our electric motors for boats are designed to be efficient. These motors excel at driving large propellers, ensuring optimal performance with reduced energy consumption. Törkmar’s innovative technology offers eco-friendly, powerful solutions tailored for reliable and sustainable boating adventures.

Look after the watts and the kilowatts will look after themselves.

The Törkmar inboard electric motors for boats are highly efficient and extremely quiet. Glide along, and all you’ll hear is the gentle gurgling of water around the propeller, the rustling of leaves, and the songs of birds. You can be assured that you will be using minimal watts to navigate your way.

David & Sandy : Stelvio

"We opted for a 20” prop. I’m convinced that a big propeller gently moving large amounts of water means efficiency.”

A new way of thinking.

Back To Front Thinking

In our opinion too much time is spent thinking about the motor and not enough thinking about the propeller. It's the propeller that makes the boat move not the motor.

Torque is our jam

Torque is a rotational force, the greater the torque, the greater the force. A high torque motor can easily turn a large prop. Torque is exactly the same force needed to open a stubborn jam jar.

Going against the flow

Force applied gently over a large area is more effective on water than a harshly applied force in a small area. Choose a propeller, then a motor to turn it for the most efficient solution for your boat.

Our Installation Process

Engine Room Assesment

It very much depends on whether your boat is a new build or a retrofit. That said every boat is different. We can work from plans, photos or drawings to see if your boat is suitable. If there is still doubt we can visit in person.

Motor Installation and Configuration

The motors will come already commisioned. We do this in our workshop to suit your boat. Regarding installation, we come from a boat builder background and we want to make it as straight forward as we believe it should be. 

Final Testing

Easy next step. Once fixed in position and connected to a power source the motor will be ready to test. Again we can come out to you to verify the installation. If there is any need to tweak setting, we can do this during the call out.
