I would like to travel at about 5 knots for as long as possble.I would like to use a rudder and have a controller of some sort about in the middle of the boat.Any ideas and what this would cost me?
Look at the file "Building an Electric Javelin" located on this Yahoo Group. More work than attaching an electric outboard, but much more efficient, and reasonable in cost. This setup could be adapted to many small boats.
