[Electric Boats] Outboard conversion question

 

In the Photo section, in the "Default Club Album", there is a photo of an outboard motor conversion (top row, second from right) to electric. Now, from what I've been able to determine, an outboard engine turns over at anywhere from a few thousand RPM to as much as 5 or 6 thousand, while most electric motors top out at 2500 RPM or so. Can someone tell me how this seeming disparity in input speed equates to output? What electric motors would be appropriate for this type of conversion? Thanks
