LEHR Marine Engines

Just got this months issue of Sport Fishing Mag and they had this in the new product section. I’d like to hear your thoughts, pros and cons, of this technology in the marine industry.

Very cool. Thanks for sharing that.

I wonder how far a 20-lb. tank will go? Looks like a great concept for a low HP motor for a tender or small fishing boat.

Not sure…that was the first thought that popped into my head too. My next question is, if/when they produced larger horsepower motors, how safe would it be to have permanent propane tanks below deck? I tried to find info on other websites for specs on run time but all I found was a 2-3 hour runtime on a gallon bottle for the weed trimmer they make.

a properly vented propane tank is probably safer than a gasoline tank.
