Steerable POD Motors
Looking for an advanced electric propulsion system with maximum maneuverability? Our steerable POD motors are the perfect replacement for traditional inboard engines. You can choose from two versions: the affordable Entry Level Steerable POD and the powerful standard Steerable POD. Both combine precision, durability, and ease of use for any type of boat.
Entry Level Steerable POD: Simple, Efficient and Reliable
The Entry Level Steerable POD offers a cost-effective entry into the world of electric steerable motors. Thanks to its modular design, this motor is easy to integrate into existing steering systems. You simply replace the rudder, mount the motor, and connect the steering arm. The motor is suitable for both new builds and refits, with standard compatibility for steering cylinders and cables. Its design ensures a watertight installation and reliable performance. Available in power outputs up to 75 kW.
Steerable POD: Ultimate Control with Joystick Steering
The standard Steerable POD motor takes comfort and precision to the next level. It is electronically controlled via an advanced CAN system and responds instantly to input from a joystick or steering wheel. With Zero Turn Steering, you can rotate in place, ideal for narrow harbors or challenging conditions. These motors are fully electric, low-maintenance, and can be installed within a single day. Perfect for both recreational and professional applications.
Smart and Sustainable Design
Every steerable POD motor is built on our unique rim drive technology. There is no central shaft, so ropes or nets cannot get caught. With only one rotating part, maintenance is kept to a minimum. The electric winding is located on the outer casing, fully sealed and corrosion-resistant. This makes our motors rugged and reliable, even in saltwater environments.
Full Integration and Flexibility
Whether you’re planning a new build or a refit, Rim Drive Technology’s steerable POD motors adapt to your project. They are compatible with existing steering systems and ready for immediate use. Thanks to the modular system, it’s even possible to convert a fixed POD into a steerable POD or outboard in just 30 minutes.
Advanced Features for Maximum Control
Our systems offer additional features such as Side-Shift Parking Mode, Magnetic Compass Correction, and Steering Sensitivity Mode. These smart functions enhance steering comfort and safety, even in changing currents or windy conditions. You maintain optimal control under all circumstances.
