Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à des systèmes de commande de hors-bord électrique configurés pour être montés sur un tableau arrière d'un véhicule marin. Selon certains modes de réalisation, la commande de hors-bord comprend un corps de gouvernail qui comporte un trajet d'écoulement à travers ce dernier. Le corps de gouvernail peut également comprendre au moins un moteur électrique disposé à l'intérieur du corps de gouvernail. Le moteur électrique peut être alimenté par une ou plusieurs batteries disposées à l'intérieur du corps de gouvernail. Le moteur électrique peut être couplé à un arbre d'entraînement et à une turbine disposés à l'intérieur du corps de gouvernail. La commande de hors-bord peut également comprendre une pompe à air disposée à l'intérieur du corps de gouvernail. La commande de hors-bord peut être utilisée conjointement avec un véhicule marin gonflable. Par exemple, la commande de hors-bord peut être utilisée pour gonfler et propulser un véhicule marin gonflable.
