The global electric boat market is expected to grow from US$ 5,260.52 million in 2022; it is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 13.7% from 2022 to 2028.
Several key market players are engaged in developing technologically advanced electric boats. For instance, X Shore offers Eelex 8000, a model equipped with a 120-kWh lithium-ion battery pack and an electrical inboard motor, with a top speed of 35 knots and a range of 35 nautical miles at 20–24 knots. The Eelex 8000 is 8m long, has a conventional planning hull, and is designed for a functional boating life, with open spaces and a steering wheel with a sunroof in the middle. Further, research and developments to improve battery capacity and durability and customizations of hybrid boats to boost efficiency and operational capabilities are supporting the electric boat market growth. In addition, the rising emphasis on eco-friendly or fully electric boats to reduce greenhouse gas emissions is contributing to the market growth. For instance, in June 2021, South Korea’s first commercialized hydrogen-electric boat was launched at the 2021 Busan International Boat Show by Danfoss.
Thus, the rising investment in new products and component development will enhance the electric boat performance, which will drive the electric boat market growth.

Impact of COVID-19 Pandemic on North America Electric Boat Market
Boating and fishing are the major outdoor recreational activities in the US, Canada, and Mexico. The COVID-19 pandemic caused economic and social harm to people working in the fishery industry. The lockdown restrictions also affected the supply chain, with economic restrictions keeping many boats at a standstill in ports. Thus, the lockdown measures and halting of fishery business negatively impacted the electric boat market, affecting the recreational boating sector that supports 691,149 North American jobs. According to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), fishing exports for 2020 decreased by approximately one-third compared to the previous year due to low demand during the pandemic, as of many hotels and restaurants remained closed or empty across the region. Furthermore, in the Caribbean islands, the tourism sector witnessed a substantial drop in recreational leisure activities such as boating and water sports.
With the upliftment of lockdown restrictions in North America, the boating industry is witnessing substantial growth. Most of the tourist locations were opened to the public in the second quarter of 2020, which boosted the demand for leisure boating in the US and Canada. For instance, the US recreational boating industry witnessed a significant increase in recreational boating activities, such as leisure boating and tourism. According to the National Marine Manufacturers Association (NMMA), the retail unit sales of new powerboats in the US reached a 13-year high in 2020, with ~320,000 units sold, up by 13.0% compared to 2019. This is anticipated to boost the electric boat market growth in North America.

Stringent Government Regulations for Controlling Greenhouse Gas Emissions
Electric boats are rapidly replacing fuel-powered boats due to rising environmental concerns and stringent government regulations to control greenhouse gas emissions. Conventional boats produce a large number of exhaust gases such as sulfur oxide, carbon dioxide, and nitrogen oxide. Thus, the growing pollution levels across marine lines and seaports enable government authorities to shift toward eco-friendly options such as electric boats. Electric hybrid boats help reduce pollution levels and maintain environmental sustainability goals. Thus, government regulations for eliminating greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are propelling the demand for electric boats.
In the past few years, organizations, including the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and European Commission (EC), are taking several actions to reduce airborne emissions from the marine sector via policy initiatives. These include the implementation of Emission Control Areas (ECAs), setting sulfur content limits in marine fuels, and the international convention for preventing pollution from boats and ships. These policy initiatives have encouraged the development and adoption of various eco-friendly electric and hybrid boats. Further, the IMO is taking early steps to reduce GHG emissions. In April 2018, the United Nations (UN) agency set an aim for curbing carbon emissions from ships and boats by approximately 50% below the 2008 level by 2050.
Boat Type-based Market Insights
Based on boat type, the electric boat market is bifurcated into pure electric and hybrid. The pure electric segment is dominating the market due to strong technological development in the product offering. However, the electric boat market in the hybrid segment will witness growth in the forecast period.
