Converting to electric boating
E-WERF, the right partner for converting your boat to electric
Are you considering electric boating? Then you must have many questions, such as: is my boat suitable? What are the costs? Is it a good investment? And what options are there? At E-WERF, we would like to help you make an informed choice. With years of experience in electric boating, we excel in knowledge and quality. We stand for commitment, transparency, enthusiasm and honesty. Prefer to see for yourself what makes us unique? Drop by for a cup of coffee and find out how we can help you.
Whether you have a boat with an outboard motor, inboard motor, pod motor or any other propulsion system: at E-WERF, we have the knowledge and experience to replace it with a silent, vibration-free and fully electric system. We take care of the entire installation from A to Z.
We hoist your boat out of the water and clean it thoroughly. We then dismantle the old engine and clean the engine compartment. We then install and wire all new systems. We also deliver other on-board systems, such as 12V, to you fully working.
Thanks to our cooperation with various suppliers, we can offer a suitable solution for every budget and every wish. No standard solutions, but customised work that perfectly suits your boat - and all at a transparent price.
Boat Configurator
We have developed this configurator so that you can understand the cost of a conversion. However, every boat is different and we think our experience is invaluable in determining what is needed to electrically power your boat to your liking and budget. For tailor-made advice, we will be happy to provide you with a quotation, without any obligation. Please contact us for this.

Why deal with E-WERF?
It is a big investment, then it has to be right the first time.
E-WERF stands for best quality
At E-WERF, we have focused exclusively on electric boating since 2014. Like the market and technology, we have developed and progressed significantly over the past 10+ years. We work exclusively with the best materials, certified where possible, from leading brands within our field.
We think ahead in everything we do so that your boat and powertrain continue to function optimally. That is why we protect all systems against moisture, have developed batteries that can stand empty for long periods without suffering damage, and use advanced control systems to ensure that every installation meets our high quality standards.
In addition, we take the time to thoroughly test every installation, including endurance testing, to ensure that everything works perfectly before we hand over your boat to you.
With us, we got it right the first time. As it should be.
E-WERF stands for transparent and personal
When making a major investment, such as converting or buying a boat, it is essential that you are properly advised. Thanks to our extensive experience, we can make accurate estimates of what to expect prior to each project. This way, we avoid surprises for both you and us.
Our quotations are transparent and detailed, listing all components and the assembly time required. Would you like additional work done during the conversion? Then you will always receive a clear quotation in advance.
For larger projects where the scope is difficult to determine in advance, we work in close consultation with you, the client. In doing so, we carefully keep track of hours worked and materials used, so you know exactly where you stand.
No surprises, no hidden costs. Just good and honest
Hybrid Sailing
The benefits of electric and fuel: no compromise!
Want to combine the benefits of electric cruising with the range of a fuel engine? A hybrid drive could be the perfect solution. There are no standard solutions for hybrid drives, but at E-WERF we have extensive experience to realise a suitable solution for almost any boat.
We offer hybrid systems such as engines mounted on a diesel engine, pod engines placed next to an outboard engine, and complete sets for larger vessels where a diesel generator combined with a battery pack provides the propulsion.
Are you interested in hybrid boating? Feel free to contact us to discuss the possibilities for your specific situation.

Bootombouwen.nl |This is how we make electric boating even more accessible
In recent years, we have noticed that many boat owners enjoy working on their boats themselves and even take up the challenge of converting their boat to electric propulsion. Unfortunately, not everyone has the right resources and knowledge to do this successfully. Therefore, together with our sister company Bootombouwen.nl, we have developed the Sailconnect.
Compatible with a wide range of engines, chargers and batteries, this innovative system makes a complete installation plug-and-play. You can install everything yourself: simply specify the desired cable lengths, and Bootombouwen.co.uk will deliver everything to order.
Do you still need some extra support? Thanks to our combination of a physical boatyard and a web shop, you can always fall back on our expertise and, if necessary, call in extra help. This is how we make electric boating even more accessible to everyone!
Premium Dealer and System Integrator
Suppliers also choose E-WERF
We are extremely proud that several leading suppliers recognise the quality of our work and put us forward as preferred dealer/installer of their systems. In many cases, we are therefore allowed to provide extra warranty and, because the lines of communication with the suppliers are short, we can often offer solutions that others do not have.
We are also often approached for the development of various applications for the maritime industry. Thanks to our knowledge advantage, we also work with companies to develop integrations, plug-and-play solutions and batteries. All to make your experience even better.
