I just checked with the UK distributors as I realised you meant 2 rather than a single unit – thereby making 12hp. They reckoned 4hp was more likely each but with a much more efficient torque curve so at least as good as a 9.9 petrol outboard. The only problem is the lack of useful experience as they've only sold 2 of this model in the last year.

This electric propulsion business is just a bit too young in the medium sized leisure market – hope it matures before my aging Yam 9.9 gives up!
