We have been asked if it is possible for an Encore Pedal boat owner to add an electric motor after they have already purchased a pedal boat. And though all of our Encore boats are built with the same hull, the installation of an electric motor requires special tooling and installation skills. It is something that is built into the boats at the factory and is not something that we would recommend being done in the field.
The electric motor should therefore be considered as a built-in option – not an add-on option.
