Torqeedo Cruise 3.0 FP Pod Drive

A clean, low-drag fixed-pod electric drive for sailboats and displacement vessels up to about 3 tons. The 6 HP-equivalent inboard alternative for quiet, fuel-free cruising.

Overview

The Torqeedo Cruise 3.0 FP is a fixed-position (FP) pod drive that delivers the propulsion of a 6 HP gasoline engine without the noise, fumes, or maintenance. Rather than clamping to a transom, the pod mounts through the hull in a fixed under-hull position — a streamlined, low-drag installation that keeps the motor permanently submerged and out of sight, ideal for sailboats where clean lines and minimal drag under sail matter most.

An onboard computer with GPS provides real-time calculations of speed, power draw, battery state, and remaining range, so you always know how far you can go. The corrosion-resistant construction is built for long service life in fresh and saltwater alike.

Key Features

• 6 HP propulsive equivalence — efficient fixed-pod propulsion for boats up to about 3 tons.
• Low-drag under-hull mount — fixed-pod design keeps the drive submerged for clean sailing performance.
• GPS onboard computer with live speed, power draw, battery state, and remaining range.
• Corrosion-resistant construction for durable fresh- and saltwater use.
• Quiet, fume-free operation — a maintenance-free alternative to a small inboard.

Mounting & Boat Fit

Unlike a transom-mounted outboard, the Cruise 3.0 FP is installed in a fixed pod through the hull, so there is no shaft-length or transom-height selection. Fitment is determined by your hull's pod-mounting location and the available space below the waterline. The fixed-pod layout is best suited to sailboats and displacement craft up to roughly 3 tons where a permanent, low-drag drive is preferred over a removable outboard. We're happy to help confirm the right pod placement and battery setup for your specific hull.
