The Torqeedo 1003 is perfect - for a wading pool. If you buy one, you will have constant range anxiety, inadequate
power, and utter unreliability. My favorite Torqeedo feature is the automatic shear pin failure, which you will enjoy simply by running the
motor; perhaps that's why they sell the shear pins in 12-packs.
Overall, the construction is as robust as a plastic toy, but you do get to pay almost twice as much as you would for a gas
motor.
Do not buy one!!!
Learn from the sorrows of others.
Fair winds,
