The unique RIMDRIVE operates extremely quietly. The propeller forms the rotating part of the electric motor (rotor), and the fixed winding (stator) is mounted in the tunnel. As a result, gears are not used in this design. In addition, a ring mounted around the propeller, prevents it from cavitating. Charging can either be delivered by a charger 110/230VAC to 48VDC charger or by converting the normal 12 or 24V battery supply voltage by means of a DC to DC converter solution.
