Torqeedo Cruise 6.0 R TorqLink – Powerful 48V 9.9HP Electric Outboard for Larger Sailboats and Commercial Vessels
The Torqeedo Cruise 6.0 RS is a high-performance 48V electric outboard motor delivering the equivalent of 9.9 HP, making it an ideal solution for motorboats, sailboats, dinghies, and light commercial vessels up to 6 tons.
All Cruise models are equipped with a built-in GPS, onboard computer, and integrated display, providing real-time data on speed, input power, battery charge, and remaining range. Designed for efficiency and durability, the Cruise features a lightweight, low-drag pylon and advanced helical gear design for ultra-smooth, quiet operation.
This RS version comes equipped with TorqLink, Torqeedo’s advanced communication system for seamless integration and high-speed data exchange between components like the Power 48-5000 battery and TorqLink throttles (sold separately). It’s also available in tiller-steered and fixed pod configurations.
Cruise 6.0 RS – Key Benefits:
- 6,000 W input power – electric equivalent of a 9.9 HP gas outboard
- Best paired with the Power 48-5000 lithium battery for optimal performance and precise range monitoring

* Torqeedo static thrust measurement is based on internationally accepted ISO standards. Static thrust figures for conventional trolling motors are typically measured differently, which results in higher values. To compare Torqeedo static thrust data with conventional trolling motors, add approximately 50% to the Torqeedo static thrust values.
