Our Boats
Best Marine USA offers a range of electric workboats that meet the diverse needs of our clients, prioritizing environmental responsibility without compromising on performance. Our models include:
Passenger
Boats
Our electric passenger boats offer a smooth, quiet, and eco-conscious experience for passengers. Whether for ferries, water taxis, or sightseeing tours, these vessels provide reliable power and a comfortable ride. With zero emissions, passengers can enjoy cleaner air and reduced noise pollution, enhancing the overall journey. These boats are designed with safety and sustainability in mind, making them ideal for short to medium-distance trips.
Car Carrier
Boats
Efficient and eco-friendly, our electric car carrier boats are designed to transport up to 25,000 pounds of total cargo capacity, accommodating up to 6 cars depending on their size or even small trucks. With zero emissions, these vessels offer a cleaner and quieter alternative to traditional transport methods, making them ideal for inter-island vehicle transport or operations in environmentally sensitive areas. Built for durability and ease of maneuverability, our boats provide a reliable, sustainable solution for vehicle transportation while helping to protect the environment.
Acuaculture
Boats
Designed for the demanding needs of the aquaculture industry, our electric aquaculture boats offer reliability, efficiency, and sustainability. These boats help streamline operations such as feeding, harvesting, and monitoring in fish farms, while also reducing environmental impact. With electric propulsion, aquaculture operations can be carried out with minimal noise and zero emissions, safeguarding the delicate ecosystems surrounding fish farms.
Harbor
Boats
Efficient and eco-friendly, our electric harbor service boats are designed to handle the unique demands of port operations. With zero emissions, they provide a cleaner and quieter alternative to traditional vessels, making them perfect for tasks like towing, berthing, and general maintenance in busy harbor environments. Built for durability and ease of maneuverability, our boats help streamline your harbor services while protecting the environment.

By choosing our propulsion systems, clients gain access to state-of-the-art technology designed to reduce emissions and optimize performance, setting their vessels up for a sustainable future.
1. Fully Electric Systems
Fully electric propulsion systems use lithium-ion batteries to power electric motors, directly driving the propellers. Key benefits include:
-
Zero Emissions: No internal combustion, reducing environmental impact.
-
Efficiency: Instant torque and a simplified drivetrain lower maintenance needs.
-
Quiet Operation: Minimal noise enhances comfort and suits sensitive areas.
2. Hybrid Systems
Hybrid systems combine diesel generators, electric motors, and batteries, offering flexible operation:
-
High Speed: Diesel generators power motors for swift travel.
-
Eco-Friendly Cruising: Batteries provide energy for slower, fuel-efficient operations.
3. Inline Hybrid Systems
Inline hybrid systems link a diesel engine and electric motor with the gearbox and propeller shaft, enabling:
-
Diesel Mode: Direct propeller drive for high speed.
-
Electric Mode: Low-speed operation in restricted areas.
-
Combined Mode: Boosted power from both systems when needed.
Our Experience and Vision
With five years of dedicated research and development, we are proud to launch our first electric workboat, a 45-foot aluminum catamaran named ZERO, in February 2025. This zero-emission vessel exemplifies our commitment to innovation and sustainability. ZERO will serve as a fully electric garbage collection boat, delivering cleaner operations for an international waste management client. This launch represents a significant milestone for Best Marine USA, reflecting our vision to drive impactful change across the marine industry.
