Electric Drives for Every Vessel.
Silent. Emission-free. Part of your onboard system.
Fischer Panda electric drives are built for the water. Water-cooled, compact and engineered for continuous operation. They run quietly, produce zero emissions and connect directly with your onboard energy system. Whether you are fitting out a new build, retrofitting an existing vessel or looking for a hybrid solution: the right drive exists for your application. Less noise. No exhaust. More control. And access to waters where combustion engines are no longer welcome.
Every vessel. The right drive.
Fischer Panda electric drives cover the full range of marine propulsion. From compact 48 V systems for sailing yachts and houseboats to high-voltage drives for commercial vessels. Choose the system that fits your vessel, your route and your power requirements.
POD Drives
Mounted outside the hull. No engine room. No shaft tunnel through your boat. The motor disappears beneath the hull. Space and silence remain. 3.8–20 kW at 48 V. Ideal for sailing yachts, catamarans and houseboats.
Shaft Drives
Installed inside the hull, connected directly to the existing propeller shaft. No new shaft tunnel. No hull modification. Dry, accessible and built for bluewater sailing, commercial operations and heavy displacement vessels. 3.8–20 kW at 48 V.
Special Solutions - Parallel Hybrid
Not ready to go fully electric? The Fischer Panda Parallel Hybrid combines your existing diesel engine with an electric motor on the same shaft. Silent in harbour. Diesel at sea. No modifications to the main engine. 10 kW and 20 kW at 48 V.

Special Solution - High-Voltage Drives
For vessels above 20 tonnes or applications requiring sustained high performance. 360 V to 420 V. Up to 100 kW per shaft. For small passenger ferries, commercial workboats and performance yachts. Delivered and commissioned by specially trained Fischer Panda dealers.
Electric cruising. Without range anxiety.
Fischer Panda electric drives work together with Fischer Panda generators and all major battery systems on the market. The generator recharges the battery bank underway. More range without depending on shore power. No fuel smell on board. No local emissions on the water. Less maintenance, fewer breakdowns, lower operating costs over the lifetime of the vessel. And wherever emission-free zones are expanding, you are already compliant. One system. One manufacturer. One point of contact.
Installation, commissioning and long-term service. One team. Worldwide.
