Re: [Electric Boats] Another possible jetboat conversion??

 

Hi Allan,
You're "looking for slow cruising", the first question would be : Do you want to be able to cruise at minimum planing speed, or do you want to use the contraption as a displacement hull?
In either case, you will need Lithium batteries, to have any sensible use, I would guess.

Hello everyone, finally found this site after looking for electric boat conversions.
I have a 14' 1995 seadoo speedster with both damaged engines removed and am keen to convert to electric as spares/engines etc are not easily to find and also at nearly £7 a gallon of petrol its ridiculous.
Am just looking for slow cruising and would appreciate any advice as to how possible this is and what type of inboard electric motors\batteries I could use?
There is a large enclosed area where the two engines and 100litre petrol tank was so it should hold quite a few batteries....


Cheers

Alan
