Conrad Humphreys said “I’m thrilled to announce Blue Electric, the new high-tech division of Sport Environment. Our focus will be to help our customers transition to electric propulsion and cleaner technologies that support and protect our blue environment. I’m delighted to join ePropulsion UK as a new dealer in Plymouth, Britain’s Ocean City. ePropulsion is not just the global leader in electric drives for boats, they are also a company with a desire to transform the way we interact with water and the marine life that it contains.
Plymouth has one of the largest natural harbours in Europe which is the perfect place for marine leisure sports. We are expecting to see a boom in the micro-mobility and marine transportation sectors and I look forward to helping our customers transition to electric propulsion. The boating future here in Plymouth is Blue Electric.”

And we share his mission to help people enjoy a better boating experience and become better custodians of our planet.
Since we met at Plymouth’s inaugural Green Tech Boat Show, I’ve been inspired by the blend of community and commercial projects Conrad is involved in and his passion for protecting and improving the environment. We’re all looking forward to an exciting journey working together.”
