Re: [Electric Boats] About to convert



Hi John !

I am also in the first stage of converting my Ericson 27 to electric. I,
however, am thinking of the Etek permanent magnet DC 48 volt by Briggs
and Stratton. I have looked at the scripts on the Mars Electric
ME020613001 and the price is the same as the Briggs ($450.00). Hopefully
this Sunday I can start removing my Volvo Penta MB10A, along with the
fuel tank. Give me a call at 619-424-9800, six days a week (my business)
any time between 5:30 am and 7:30 pm Pacific Standard Time.

I choose the Etek because I believe this is the one now being used by
SolidNav which bought the rights from Sea-EV. I have seen the SolidNav
installed in a 27 footer in San Diego but have not taken a test ride.

What convinced you to go with the Mars ?

I am about to convert a 27' Cheoy lee with a frozen diesel and don't want
to make any more stupid mistakes than I might without advice from people
who have already undertaken this type of project. I have heard that the
Mars motor is the best choice. Is this the general consensus? apparently
some people in the marina where I am situated have not had good success
with conversions because of lack of sufficient power to get in and out of
the marina. Thanks, John
