Elco Motor Yachts 14hp electric outboard marine motor

The Elco EP-14 is a powerful electric marine propulsion system - perfect for pontoon boats, small boats and sailboats. Combining affordability and environmentally clean and efficient marine propulsion. It is an easy refit or an even easier option for new boats under construction - these electric outboards are made to fit a standard 20 inch transom.

Most of the Elco outboards run at 4,500-5,000 RPM with a 2-1 gear reduction ratio (the EP50 can run up to 6,000 RPM). The lower leg unit is a proprietary Elco part with a single gear in the gearbox. Compareable gas outboards typically have several gears in their gearbox so with just 1 gear the Elco is typically more reliable. About the only part that can be sourced through a Yamaha outboard parts center or dealer is the water pump's impeller. If after several years of use and you ever find vibration occurring and you are certain that you have never grounded the leg/ hit it on a hard object, then the first thing that should be checked is the leg's oil level. If that is OK, then the second thing we should look at through a reputable marine mechanic is the water pump's impeller. Water pump impellers do not last forever and can be damaged quickly if the motor is run out of water or if the water intake becomes blocked.

The Elco outboard marine motors come ready to connect and run - the leg is filled with gear oil and the motors have been pre-programmed and test run at the factory for 1 hour.

How do I choose - Long Shaft or Short Shaft?
Take a tape measure and measure from the top of the transom mounting plate that we will clamp the motor to and measure down to the water line and add 1 inch or so.

  • If the measurement is 17.5 inches choose the Short Shaft outboard
  • If the measurement is 22.5 inches choose the Long Shaft outboard

Battery System:
Please note that the Elco motors as priced do not include a battery system. Customers can source their own deep cycle battery system or we can offer a variety of battery systems. More information below...

Panther Electric Hydraulic Model 40 Trim and Tilt 55-0040

This is an optional part that many Elco outboard motor owners opt for on the smaller motors when they operate in shallow waters, frequently make beach landings and/ or when they want to be easily able to lift the motor out of the water.

In addition, the Panther system can make installing the Elco outboards easier on some larger boats that may have a flat rear transom not necessarily designed for outboard motors.

This trim and tilt is designed specifically for the weekend fisherman. The Model 40 is a heavy-duty, fabricated aluminum bracket. Holds 2 and 4 stroke motors up to 150 lbs. Its powerful electro-mechanical actuator provides automatic trim and tilt with the push of a button. Bracket comes with electrical relay and 2-button switch with a 12' power cord that connects to a 12 Volt battery system.

If needed, we can provide a Victron Energy Orion 48 Volt to 12 Volt DC converter at additional cost so that you can power the Panther with the Elco motor's 48 Volt DC battery system.

   

Do you need a "Series Battery Connection Harness"?
Pinnacle Innovations will be more than happy to supply you with a high quality Custom Made Series Battery Wiring Harness using Amercian made tinned copper marine power cabling, tinned copper marine cable ends with round eyelet holes, adhesive backed heavy duty marine heat shrink tubing and the matching Elco motor quick disconnector cable end.

We also only use the much higher rated Class T fuse sets made by Blue Sea Systems instead of ANL or MEGA fuses (the ANL and MEGA Fuse holders are primarily plastic, can overheat and come apart causing a dangerous situation). We can also make the cables whatever length that you may need and if you need the cables to be longer than the standard 82" we can also look at using larger diameter power cable.
Available for Both Elco Inboards and Outboards and This Kit Ships from Pinnacle Innovations, Langley, BC, Canada.

Sample "Base" Battery Wire Connection Harnesses:

Sample base high quality Elco EP14 and EP20 electric outboard motor series battery connection wire harness kit with high quality tinned copper marine cable and ends as well as Blue Sea Systems Class T fuse that is ABYC approved for use in electric marine propulsion.

 

Sample base high quality Elco EP50 electric outboard motor series battery connection wire harness kit with high quality tinned copper marine cable and ends as well as Blue Sea Systems Class T fuse that is ABYC approved for use in electric marine propulsion.

Priced from $199.00 USD plus the cost of the Class T fuse Holder and Class T Fuse.

Contact Us to Add to Your Elco Order

 

Elco's Supplied Quick Connection System:
Elco uses two fairly short piceces of 2 AWG tinned copper marine power wire
about 8" long between the motor head and the quick connector. On the EP14, EP20, EP30 and EP50 motors, this quick connector is rated for 350 Amps. The brand name is "Anen" so make sure you use the matching brand/ size.

Your motor will ship with the one blue connector and two short power cables attached to the motor, plus a matching blue connector with two tinned copper cable end lugs that you can crimp to your power cabling.

In some installations where cables need to be longer than say 8 or 9 feet, we will use bigger power cable up to possibly 2/0 AWG.

Check out a couple pictures to the right and feel free to Contact Us if you have any questions.

Do you need a high Voltage DC Disconnect Switch(s)?

According to the ABYC Marine Electrical Code Book, the answer is "YES". For all electric propulsion maritime vessels it is required to have a manual disconnect switch for the motor/ battery system that can handle both the Voltage of the Elco motor system as well as the maximum Amperage of the Elco motor.

If you would like, we can also supply you with 1 or 2 of the appropriate DC Disconnect Switches to make your Elco motor system installation complete and up to ABYC Standards. The actual ABYC Code stipulates that we in fact should have two DC disconnects - one for the main positive and one for the main negative power cables.

48 Volt Model: $74.99 USD

ELCO EP SERIES WARRANTY:
Limited Warranty, 2 years labour, 3 years parts
NOTE: Do not run the motor out of the water - it will damage the water pump and void your warranty.

Battery System:
Please note that the Elco motors as priced do not include a battery system. Customers can source their own deep cycle battery system or we can offer a variety of battery systems:

  • Lead-acid batteries: lowest cost, heavy, bulky, require maintenance, slow recharging, lowest life expectancy/ cycle life (up to about 600 cycles but usually start losing capacity after about 300 cycles)
  • AGM batteries: moderate cost, heavy, bulky, require less maintenance, slow recharging, improved life expectancy/ cycle life (up to 1,000 to 1,200 cycles)
  • Lithionics lithium-ion batteries: best overall system with highest performance, next to zero maintenance, lightweight, fast charging, compact and exceptional life expecatncy - up to 5,800 cycles at 50% discharge rate. The only downside is these batteries cost significantly more than lead-acid batteries.

In order for us to specify and quote a battery system we ask that you provide us the following information:

  • For how many hours per day do you want to be able to cruise?
  • At approximately what % of full throttle do you expect to use on average?
  • What is the weight and size of your boat?
  • What are the physical dimensions of the battery area that you have?
  • Please tell us about the electrical outlet(s) you have access to to plug the battery charger into. Example: 110 Volt AC outlet on a 15 Amp circuit breaker 100 feet away from the boat.
  • Please let us know if you have any roof or deck space available for possible rigid or semi-flexible solar panels and the dimensions of such areas.

With this information we can then calculate the Amp hours of battery capacity required to give you the desired running time before recharging. Depending on your budget and other factors we can then quote you some battery options. Please keep in mind that to be able to run all day at a high percentage of throttle may require a substantial battery bank. For many small boats (under 25 feet) we can provide an economical battery system that can provide a few hours enjoyment but many small boats (such as a 10 foot tender boat) may not have enough available space or carrying capacity for a battery bank that can run the motor more than 1 or 2 hours at high throttle.

For applications that require longer running times the most economical way to go may be what we call a "hybrid-electric battery system" where we can decrease the size and cost of the battery system by adding a Polar Power DC diesel generator or other type of generator.

TROUBLESHOOTING - Elco Electric Outboard Motor Service Notes:
In the unlikely event that something goes wrong with the Elco electric inboard or outboard marine motor there are lights that flash on the electric controller (located under the engine cover on the top of the motor) and that tells us what is wrong. It really depends on what the controller tells us as to whether the motor can be repaired quickly and easily locally or if it needs to go back to Elco for repair.

In the rare event that your OUTBOARD motor is causing vibration after being operated for a long time (many, many outings or a period of years) the first thing that we would want to check is the lower leg's water pump impeller. Over long periods of time (or if you run the motor out of the water) the rubberized fins on the impeller can become damaged or worn. For both the Elco EP14 and EP20 there is a direct Yamaha replacement kit with part number 63V-W0078-01. This can be serviced by a marine outboard mechanic.

In the rare event that you strike the leg on a rock or something hard and vibration results, then it may be possible that the whole lower leg may need replacing on the outboard motor. Not to worry though, Elco has you covered with economical lower leg replacements and the price for the lower leg on the EP14, EP20 and EP30 hp is $1,190.00 USD.


Elco Inboard Motors: Please read the instruction manual on the inboards (click on PDF link below). We will help with a correct prop solution: we need the boat specs and what the diameter of the prop that the owner wants to use. It is very important that the pitch is correct other wise the motor will not function correctly - you can either go in over Voltage or under Voltage and you will not get the performance that you should from the motor and this can cause problems. There is a procedure that is in the manual for the inboards – you need to water test and take down the speed you are going and the rpms and the Amps the motor is pulling (all that is displayed on the display that come with the unit but you will have to use a hand held GPS to get the speed data) at first low speed, then half throttle and then full throttle. This will tells us if the pitch is correct and you are getting full Horsepower and reaching 1,500 RPM- 1,800 RPM is about the maximum for the Elco EP Inboards.

How long can I go without recharging?

Elco motor yachts electric marine propulsion motor system for sailboat, yacht and boat spacer
There are various factors in determining how far you can go before you need to recharge. Winds, tides, currents, weights, propeller type, vessel speed and battery size are some examples. With a generator on board running time can be extended or made continuous. Below is a graphical representation comparing Diesel fuel consumption for an Elco electric propulsion system using lead-type batteries versus a diesel engine. NOTE: With Lithionics Battery Lithium-ion batteries, the savings and ranges will be much greater.

What size Elco Electric Marine Motor is right for my boat?

Elco motor yachts electric marine propulsion motor system for sailboat, yacht and boat spacer
There is some overlap between motor and boat sizes so choosing the right size motor for you and your vessel can sometimes require some personal expertise to make the right choice. In selecting the correct size electric motor, some general tips are - in areas with strong tides and currents, choose the next larger size motor, and the same goes for weight - if your boat is heavy for its length, choose the next size up.

Elco Motor Yacht has also developed a robust and easy motor coupling system to allow for twin or triple motor installations. This can be used when a vessel exceeds 85 feet or if you need a faster cruising speed. Please contact us about the motor coupling option by email.

The table below serves a good starting point for most boaters. The table also gives boaters an idea of what sort of investment they will be looking at.
