[Electric Boats] Re: FW: 5 hp electric motor to power 10,500 lbs 30 ft sailboat

 

curious about the 3 hp electric motor on e bay for $500.oo
found 2 hp by manufacturer for $2,760.00 but no 3 hp motor listed
still confused about thrust and power.

tried my new 8 ft dinghy with 15 hp gamefisher motor from my forger 26 ft. sailboat
performance = bouncy and over reving engine top speed 10/12 mph.

tried my 9.9 hp marioner on same boat = smooth performance 18/20 mph
the prop makes the difference???
