Owners keep getting asked if it’s electric
Honestly, the EP-20 motor is phenomenal. People stop me to ask me if it’s a gas motor because it goes so fast!
I have now owned my Elco for one full season and it operated flawlessly… I’m the fastest boat on my lake.
I have to say that this motor is a workhorse… I just drop the motor in the water, turn the key and go.
The Elco motor is powerful with quiet operation, and the quality of the product has surpassed my expectations.
Our Story
Since the 1893 World’s Columbian Exposition
Elco carried 55 electric launches across the lagoons of the Chicago World’s Fair in 1893. The company has built electric propulsion ever since, through PT boats, classic launches, and today’s outboard and inboard line.
