Keep in mind that prices that are given here are off-the-shelf individual prices. These prices are all profit-based and possibly priced for a rather substantial profit. Nothing wrong with profit, but that margin often gives room for price adjustment. Especially for worth-while causes. It's usually worth the effort.
You might to attempt to contact some manufacturers, or even some retailers to ease your cost burden. You'd have to make it clear as to what you have, what you think you need and what you're actually attempting to do. Busnessmen(women)can be somewhat smug, but many have a spot for people in need, especially if the need appears to be genuine, from a humanitarian viewpoint.
I don't know what these boats look like, what kinds of displacements or beams or how their propulsion needs might compare to more "normal" boats, but if you're successful, you're endeavor can be used as a real-world example(experiment) for the movement toward electric.
For myself, I know that all this talk about wattage, amperage, voltage, thrust and batteries is by the numbers. Real-world use tends to include all the considerations and variables we tend to forget or can't adequately factor in . . . good or bad.
I for one would be very interested in how all this pans out and hope that we hear more from you about the endeavor.
