SMG, the exclusive UK, Ireland and Channel Islands distributor, were delighted to receive such admiration and interest from consumers at the recently held Southampton International Boat Show for brands THRUSTME and Rebelcell.
ThrustMe was established in 2015 to develop electrical propulsion solutions and to produce products with a functional, lightweight, and innovative design.
The Thrustme Kicker is a transom mount outboard designed for ship-to-shore tenders, small lake boats and inshore fishing inflatables. It weighs in at just 4.4Kg (nearly 10kg lighter than the smallest petrol outboard), making it the lightest electric outboard with a built-in lithium battery available on the market today.
The Cruiser, weighing in at even less, 3.3Kg, is designed specifically for the water sports market and is primarily aimed at Kayakers, Canoeists and SUP users. The motor can easily be interchanged between canoes and boards making it excellent value, and being lighter, the runtime is increased to up to 4 hours.
Rebelcell in the last 10 years has become a leading brand of lithium-ion batteries that are extremely well suited to the angling and marine markets thanks to their lightweight design, longevity, and incredible power to size ratio; Rebelcell is fast becoming the 'must have' brand.
Nick Edgington, Sales & New Business Manager, said;
"We have no doubt that the visibility at the show of these innovative brands will generate additional demand for the products. We would therefore encourage interested trade customers to contact our sales team on 01752 241010 to reserve stock."
