ePropulsion, a global leader and market challenger in marine electric propulsion systems and services, announced today that it has partnered with Tiny Boat Nation (TBNation). In collaboration with Mack Boring & Parts Company, ePropulsion's distributor partner in the U.S., ePropulsion has sponsored TBNation's all-electric, custom Pond-Tini Series 12 pontoon giveaway, culminating with a lucky draw during the East Tennessee Fishing Show & Expo, held January 26-29, 2023, in Knoxville, Tennessee.

The TBNation custom pontoon is a versatile vessel, equipped with the ePropulsion Navy 6.0 Evo and two E80 batteries. Powered by the quiet and emission-free electric motor, the Pond-Tini Series 12 pontoon is suitable for both fresh and saltwater making the vessel ideal for satisfying the needs of families, as well as angling enthusiasts - the perfect platform for almost any on-the-water activity.

"We are excited about our partnership with TBNation this year. Not only do they have deep roots in DIY boats and recreational boating communities, but also, like ePropulsion, they are trendsetters for boat electrification," said Chris Ponnwitz, electric market manager, Mack Boring & Parts Company. "We've seen tremendous potential in the recreational boat market, especially when the pontoon boats have seen great advancements to convert into emission-free watercraft."

"We chose to partner with the brightest and most trusted brands in the industry, including ePropulsion, to come together and help us build the ultimate tiny toon and push the envelope of small craft creation," said Nick Barr, CEO, TBNation. "As the pontoon market continues to grow, it is vital to raise awareness among communities about electric propulsion options and to demonstrate that regardless of the size of your vessel, you can have a great time on the water while protecting the environment."

Tiny Boat Nation aims to actively empower boating and fishing enthusiasts with practical boat-building skills and hardware purchases through its online platform and two comprehensive sales and services centers for all ePropulsion products. The ePropulsion all-electric tiny toon giveaway has reached a huge and engaged outdoor enthusiast, with 22,000 participants this year.
