German term or phrase: Elektroboote
aquawatt steht für intensive Beschäftigung mit Wasser und Strom. Die Werft entwickelt und baut
Elektroboote und Elektro - Motoryachten mit hoher Leistung und außergewöhnlichen
Fahrleistungen.

I'm not sure whether I should translate Elektroboote or leave it in the German as I have seen websites where it is left in the original. If I should translate it, is it just electro-boat???
