Abstract: A transportable outboard drive for a boat has a head, a pylon, a shaft connecting the head and the pylon, an electric motor and a cable running inside the shaft. The shaft has at least two shaft sections and wherein the head, shaft and pylon can be arranged in a working configuration or in a transport configuration. In the working configuration, the head, the shaft and the pylon are rigidly connected to each other. In the working configuration and the transport configuration, the cable and shaft are differently positioned with respect to each other, whereas, in its transport configuration, the shaft sections are separated from each other.

Abstract: An outboard drive has an electric motor that is electronically controlled from an inverter. The outboard drive includes a pylon, with the electric motor and inverter arranged in the pylon.

Abstract: A battery with at least one battery cell has two battery poles and current-conducting connections between the battery cells and the battery poles. A safety switching encompasses a current-limiting element in the connection between the battery cells and one of the battery poles. A switch is parallel to the current-limiting element and a control device closes the switch, if the current between the battery cells and the battery poles falls below a predetermined threshold minimum current.

Abstract: An outboard drive has an electric motor that is electronically controlled from an inverter. The outboard drive includes a pylon, with the electric motor and inverter arranged in the pylon.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for regulating an electric boat motor, which is supplied with current by a battery, up to the maximum current being drawn from the battery, the battery voltage being measured and the maximum current being reduced if the battery voltage falls below a limit voltage.

Abstract: An outboard drive for a boat, having an electric motor, a power supply line and a contact-making apparatus, connected to the power supply line for connecting a DC voltage source. The outboard drive has a space for accommodating the DC voltage source. The contact-making apparatus has a first and a second contact stage, and a current limitation element is connected between the DC voltage source and the power supply line in the first contact stage.

Abstract: A boat drive has a permanent magnet-excited, electronically commutated synchronous motor with a stator and a rotor. The number of poles of the stator and the number of poles of the rotor are different. The magnetic field created between the poles of the stator and the poles of the rotor is an essentially radial field with respect to the shaft of the rotor. The poles of the rotor have a greater distance from the shaft of said rotor than the poles of the stator.
