## Description

SO300-24v has been designed for dinghies and sailboats up to 3 tons. It is s 2000 watt and 160lb thrust.SO300 high-efficiency contributes to more thrust, greater speed and ultra-longer operating time and superior range.SO300 includes a speed controller and premium battery cables with a quick connector for safe and convenient appliance.  SO300-24V adopts unique brushless technology, which distinguish SO300 from the competition.Other trolling motors use conventional commutator brushes which eventually wear out, consume additional power and generate unnecessary heat. SO300 brushless electric motors use an electronic controller instead, providing these significant advantages:  Efficiency values is significantly higher 30%~60% Much higher torque values at lower battery currents  5 times longer service life and no periodic maintenance required  Less noise, cooler operation and reduced battery consumption SpecificationsMaximum thrust: 160 poundInput power:2000WMaximum efficiency:65%Volts:24V Maximum current:80AmpMaximum proper speed:1500RPMMaximum torque:10N.MShaft: Stainless steel,standard length 36" (If need 10” or 42", leave message, no cost.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome product.
*by L***R on August 17, 2022*

I did switch out the in-line breaker for a slightly Higher amp after having problems with the original one flipping. Works perfect now.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Seller worked with me
*by R***D on May 8, 2019*

After having problems with the 160lb thrust motor that I purchased, seller agreed to my request to sell me a new motor at a significant discount as well as provide parts that allowed me to repair the original motor. This was a best resolution for me because it allowed me to continue to use my boat without a significant interruption with the option of keeping or selling the repaired motor.Seller (Jane) is very responsive to emails and an excellent communicator. Jane is a fair and trustworthy business person. The product itself works as advertised moving my 2 ton 26' sailboat at about three knots and is extremely efficient running at 1/2 -2/3rds speed . In my my opinion, after looking at other options for an electric motor that will move a 2 ton sailboat, the caroute 160lb thrust motor stands alone in terms of it's value and performance
