New pricelist and stock

You’ll see that some of the product prices have been updated.  The most notable changes are for the Cruise models which we can now offer at more attractive prices. This is a result of Torqeedo Australia now being able to bring in a large shipment by sea which has reduced shipping cost significantly.

Sydney boat show and the boaties market

Long shadows of the bargain hunters as the sun's first rays light the field

Last weekend I displayed some Torqeedos at the Sunday boaties market held at the sports fields of the Victoria Point school. And next week I’ll be at the Sydney Boat Show helping out on the Torqeedo Australia stand.  What a contrast.

The boaties market is run by the local Volunteer Marine Rescue as a fund raiser to help them buy equipment for their rescue organisation.  The cost to have a stand is $10 and the entry fee if you are looking to buy is by donation. → Read more…

Efficient inboard electric drive available

5.5Kw motor in Kapowi

Since I started the Torqeedo Shop I’ve been researching inboard electric drives so that we could offer a range of electric boat solutions. I’m now convinced that the systems from Propulsion Marine of Santa Barbara, California, are the best available for boats in the 24ft to 35ft range and we have struck an agreement with James Lambden to be able to offer their motors downunder. → Read more…

New stock

At the shipping company yard. One pallet loaded—three to go... will it all fit?

Whew!  Its quite a relief to have stock of most items. Since setting up shop six months ago its been difficult to get stock. Now for the first time we have at least one of most products and a handful of the popular items such as Travel 1003 S, and even the hard to get Ultralight kayak motor. Even this latest shipment was delayed due to the ice and snowbound European airports in late December. → Read more…

Free shipping

Right from the start I’ve offered free delivery in the local area – and what I considered local is anywhere in the greater Sydney region. Thats quite an area, and clearly I was ok about spending time and money to do so.

On the other hand, I had this odd notion of charging shipping . . . → Read More: Free shipping

World’s first dedicated Torqeedo shop

For five days from last Thursday I was immersed in the razzamatazz of the Sydney boat show on the Torqeedo Australia stand. One of the founding partners of Torqeedo, Christoph Ballin, was visiting from Germany and helped out on the stand as well as dropped by to my new office at Newport.  Christoph was enthusiastic about what I’m doing here and its interesting that this business is the world’s first dedicated Torqeedo shop. → Read more…
