Flux Marine, a developer of all-electric outboard motors and battery systems for watercraft, announced that it has raised $15.5 million in an oversubscribed Series A funding round led by Ocean Zero LLC. Flux Marine will leverage the new funding to expand manufacturing, recruit additional talent and continue to develop technologies.

Rhode Island-based Flux Marine makes electric outboard motors that aim to clean up waterways and improve the small boat experience for millions of recreational boaters.

The race is certainly on in the electrification of boating … even if everyone is jockeying for position before the market materializes. Flux Marine is joining the likes of Pure and Zin in trying to convert some of our waterways’ gas-guzzling outboards to cleaner, quieter battery powered ones, and the company just raised $15.5 million ahead of a planned summer shipping date.
