With 3,000 watts of input power, it delivers the propulsive equivalent of a 6 HP gasoline outboard, replacing two-stroke noise and fumes with smooth, instant electric thrust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor owners who already run 24V battery banks or want a more affordable entry point into electric propulsion, the 24V Cruise 3.0 R is the right choice. Pair it with a single Power 24-3500 lithium battery for over an hour of full-throttle runtime, or all-day cruising at relaxed speeds. Need more range? Scale up to as many as 8 Power 24-3500 batteries on the same system. The motor is also compatible with third-party 24V battery banks, though Torqeedo's own Power 24-3500 is strongly recommended for accurate range calculation and best system performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn integrated GPS-equipped on-board computer reads battery state, speed, power draw, and remaining range, while the rugged pylon with integral fin offers grounding protection in shallow water — useful for anyone running in skinny anchorages or beach-launching a tender.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy You'll Love It\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e6 HP propulsive equivalence\u003c\/strong\u003e from 3,000 W of input power — enough to push a 30-foot sailboat against tide and wind\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e142 lbs of static thrust\u003c\/strong\u003e (ISO standard) for confident maneuvering in current and crosswinds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWhisper-quiet operation\u003c\/strong\u003e at all throttle positions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt-in GPS and on-board computer\u003c\/strong\u003e with speed, power draw, battery state, and remaining range\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSaltwater-ready\u003c\/strong\u003e with seawater-grade aluminum, comprehensive galvanic isolation, and an included anode set for fresh and saltwater use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRugged pylon with integral fin\u003c\/strong\u003e — extra protection if you touch bottom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManual tilt with grounding protection\u003c\/strong\u003e and 4-step manual trim adjustment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStepless forward and reverse\u003c\/strong\u003e for precise low-speed maneuvering\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScalable battery system\u003c\/strong\u003e — start with one Power 24-3500 and expand to an 8-battery bank as your needs grow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTwo shaft lengths\u003c\/strong\u003e — 24.6\" (short) for 15\" transoms or 29.7\" (long) for 20\" transoms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eBuilt for Real Boating\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Cruise 3.0 R has been a workhorse in Torqeedo's lineup for years, and for good reason. It hits the right balance for owners who want serious electric capability at an accessible price: enough power for genuine work, light enough for one-person handling at 42–43 lbs depending on configuration, and modular enough to grow with your goals — whether that's adding solar charging, integrating with shore power, or expanding battery capacity for longer passages. The R configuration installs cleanly with industry-standard remote steering hardware, making it a natural fit for boats with a console helm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCruise 3.0 R vs. Cruise 3.0 RS (48V)\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis 24V model is the proven, lower-cost option, ideal if you're already invested in a 24V battery system or want a straightforward repower.
