Hi Q,
I'd love to see your boat sometime. I want to do some range testing with the 8kWh battery pack on my Bermuda 30 and King's Harbor is right around the right distance. If we get the right kind of weather window on a weekend sometime soon, maybe we could meet and check out each other's boat while I stop for lunch.
If you ever get the chance, can you collect some controlled performance data (knots to watts) for your boat? I'd like to see how close some of the performance predictions compare to real life observations. Heck, I could drive down sometime and I could help with the data collection process.
I'll send you an email off-list so that we can swap contact info.
Fair winds,
Eric
Marina del Rey, CA
