Mirage 27 Sailboat Goes Electric (Video): 6 kW ePropulsion Pod Drive Electric Motor Upgrade & On-Water Results
Winter is upgrade season - and this Mirage 27 proves how straightforward an electric repower can be. In our new video, we show how a failing diesel replaced with a 6 kW electric pod made by ePropulsion drive brings a new life to the vessel, walk through the install, and take the boat out to show how quiet, precise, and low-maintenance the result feels on the water.
Why go electric: reliability, low upkeep, instant torque, quiet docking
Install overview: pod placement, controls, cabling
Power system: LiFePO4 bank, Dock side charging
On-water takeaways: maneuvering, noise level, and real-world usability
At M-Oceans, we scope the motor, batteries, system configuration, and safety so your conversion just works. If you’re considering an electric refit for a 26–30 ft sailboat or similar boat, this project is a solid example.
