What do we do?
The simple answer to this is that we educate people about converting gas-powered boats and yachts into electric powered boats and yachts. We even sell a few “plug and play” options that we’ve sourced specifically to make your conversion easier.
But it doesn’t end there…our organization isn’t just about electric boating and yachting, ultimately we want to bring forward the reality of cleaner alternative energies into everyday living.
Just as Tesla Motors has done for the automotive industry and Zero Motorcycles has done for the motorcycle industry, we believe we can do this for the boating community.
How?
Good question but an easy one for us to answer. At Bluefin we back our words with action by converting our very own gas-powered yachts into fully electric seagoing vessels.
We’ve already done it once with “The Original Bluefin” and we have done it again. You can even watch our progress by following our blog.

Hi Rik,
yes, these beautiful launches deserve a second quiet life on the water,
would need to thow what speed and range you are looking for, unlike a car boats are always going up a very steep hill.
Interested in converting my 1979 36ft Uniflite double cabin from diesel to electric starting with the starboard side first . I currently have two catapillar 3208 diesel engines for propulsion . I would like to inquire on the cost of a complete plug and play electric propulsion system .
What are your distance and speed requirements Ken?
Speed eight to 12 knots and range as much as I can get you show me different options .
I currently have two catapillar 3208 diesel engines with a total of 420 horsepower
