Reasons to Invest



  • Paradigm Shifting Product - Our proprietary inline four cylinder engine design has solved the secondary balance issue that has plagued this design for over 100 years. It produces greater horsepower, greater efficiency and the best power to weight ratio when compared to all other outboard marine engines.
  • Experienced Team - We are built by boaters for boaters, with combined 80 years of experience and have developed relationships with industry veterans, like Mahle Powertrain, to assist us.
  • Large Market - The global marine outboard engines market is forecasted to reach $13B in 2027 and we hope to become an industry leader.

Current Development Phase


We have completed the proof of concept and Feasibility Study which was executed by Mahle Powertrain, and are currently 1/3 complete with the development of the initial prototypes. Once the prototypes have been tested and stressed, we will proceed with the manufacturing of the separate outboard engine components. The manufacturers of each of these elements have been established with world-leading engineering/manufacturing organizations specific to each sub-assembly.


We will commence development in multiple phases to create the first prototype engine, the flagship 654 (Marketed as the A654). The A654 will serve as the primary design platform for the next four engine prototypes. Upon completion of the 654, 854, and 1054HP versions, we will develop the 454 / 554. All five engines will share most of the internal parts from the A654 along with all external parts such as filters, sensors, starter, and all service components. Mahle is under contract to complete the development of the A654 engine within the following 20 months. All other sub-assemblies will be developed in parallel within this 20-month period allowing the final completion and testing of the Outboard engine at the end of this period.

Our Reg A+ is Closing Soon! Here’s Why We Doubled Down on an Inline Four Cylinder Engine Design

Dear Friends and Investors,


One of the most common questions we are asked is centered around why we decided to focus on an inline four cylinder engine design. There are many engine designs that have historical proof, and many others that are overly-optimistic and complex. We believe that with our i4 engine design, we solve a key problem with traditional four cylinder inlines known as secondary imbalance.


Albert Araujo - CEO and founder of Alfadan - shares more details in this short video:

Our Reg A+ is Closing Soon! Here Is Why Weight Reduction Is Critical To Our Design

Dear Friends and Investors,


Our mission is to deliver and manufacture outboard engines that deliver better performance, less fuel consumption, and a much lower cost of operation in comparison to existing engines on the market. We have many components in our design that will help us achieve this, but a critical area of focus is weight reduction.


Albert Araujo - Alfadan’s CEO and founder - explains how Alfadan is able to accomplish weight reduction in a complex engine design in this short video:

Our Offering is Days Away From Closing! Why our i4 Engine Is Different in the Market

Dear Friends and Investors,


For over 100 years,  inline four cylinder engines have had a major issue with the secondary balance, which has plagued this design for over 100 years. Our high performance four cylinder engines are meticulously designed to produce greater horsepower, greater efficiency and the best power to weight ratio when compared to all other outboard marine engines.

Few days left to invest! Learn About Our Engine’s Anticipated Fuel Efficiency

Dear Friends and Investors,


As some of you may appreciate, a standard boat usually gets around 3 miles per gallon at MAX RPMs on average. However, the mileage can vary from as low as 0.5 mpg (or less) to as high as 3 mpg (or more) depending on the weather condition, boat’s weight, boat’s condition, RPMs, and most importantly, the boat's engine type.

Dear Friends and Investors,


As many members of the boating industry may appreciate, manufacturing a reliable engine that’s both powerful and simple in design is often easier said than done. At Alfadan, we have considered every detail possible that will help us achieve an outboard engine that is both reliable and simple by focusing on two key components: the mid-section and the lower unit.

With Regulation A+, a non-accredited investor can only invest a maximum of 10% of their annual income or 10% of their net worth per year, whichever is greater. There are no restrictions for accredited investors.

With Regulation Crowdfunding, non-accredited investors with an annual income or net worth less than $124,000, are limited to invest a maximum of 5% of the greater of those two amounts. For those with an annual income and net worth greater than $124,000, he/she is limited to investing 10% of the greater of the two amounts.

At the close of an offering, all investors whose funds have “cleared” by this time will be included in the disbursement. At this time, each investor will receive an email from StartEngine with their Countersigned Subscription Agreement, which will serve as their proof of purchase moving forward.

Please keep in mind that a company can conduct a series of “closes” or withdrawals of funds throughout the duration of the campaign. If you are included in that withdrawal period, you will be emailed your countersigned subscription agreement and proof of purchase immediately following that withdrawal.

StartEngine assists companies in raising capital, and once the offering is closed, we are no longer involved with whether the company chooses to list shares on a secondary market, or what occurs thereafter. Therefore, StartEngine has no control or insight into your investment after the close of the live offering. In addition, we are not permitted to provide financial advice. You may want to contact a financial professional to discuss possible investment outcomes.

For Regulation Crowdfunding, investors are able to cancel their investment at any point throughout the campaign up until 48 hours before the closing of the offering. Note: If the company does a rolling close, they will post an update to their current investors, giving them the opportunity to cancel during this timeframe. If you do not cancel within this 5-day timeframe, your funds will be invested in the company, and you will no longer be able to cancel the investment. If your funds show as ‘Invested’ on your account dashboard, your investment can no longer be canceled.

For Regulation A+, StartEngine allows for a four-hour cancelation period. Once the four-hour window has passed, it is up to each company to set their own cancelation policy. You may find the company’s cancelation policy in the company’s offering circular.

Once your investment is canceled, there is a 10-day clearing period (from the date your investment was submitted). After your funds have cleared the bank, you will receive your refund within 10 business days.

Refunds that are made through ACH payments can take up to 10 business days to clear. Unfortunately, we are at the mercy of the bank, but we will do everything we can to get you your refund as soon as possible. However, every investment needs to go through the clearing process in order to get sent back to the account associated with the investment.

Both Title III (Regulation Crowdfunding) and Title IV (Reg A+) help entrepreneurs crowdfund capital investments from unaccredited and accredited investors. The differences between these regulations are related to the investor limitations, the differing amounts of money companies are permitted to raise, and differing disclosure and filing requirements.
