The ground-breaking leader in research and development for environmentally friendly technology, LEHR was founded by Captain Bernardo Herzer, an experienced captain with a passion for the environment. Once Herzer saw the positive impact his first propane powered products had on the environment, he was inspired to continue to apply his patented technology to create products with both higher power and cleaner emissions.

The benefits of propane over petrol include lower fuel cost, no petrol polluting the water, no ethanol or fuel related issues, zero evaporative emissions, easy starts (no choke), no priming, no carburettor and no winterizing. “Petrol is difficult to store and transport and the carbon monoxide fumes it produces can be harmful to boaters as well as the environment. This affects the entire food chain” says Herzer who patented a way to make small commercial engines run cleaner and more efficiently on propane.

LEHR continues to create extremely green and reliable products in the market today, and it is Herzer’s mission to create a cleaner planet for you through environmentally friendly technology.

The LEHR 2.5hp and 5hp fuelled from a 465g camping gas cylinder with the remote tank option available whilst the 9.9hp and 15hp run from a remote tank.

New to LEHR for 2014 is the world’s first electric start portable outboard with a self-enclosed internal battery for starting the engine. This will be available on the 9.9hp and the 15hp models.

Stock will be available in a selected dealer network from early 2014.
