Re: [Electric Boats] Re: Flat drive belts with PP strapping

 

Hello Orest,
 
I was able to make my own components, so I did. It was part of the challenge and fun for me. From what I see, the kits from Electric Yacht and others are very good. I had the boat out the other day just motoring around. It's nice not having to winterize! Feel free to e-mail me if I can be of further assistance.

Hi,
 
When I put together my system, I had already decided a form of flat belt would be the way to go. I wound up calling Goodyear at the behest of the supplier. I spoke with a gentleman there who was extremely helpful. I told him the application, motor, reduction and some other details and he did the engineering for me. I wound up with a flat belt with a chevron pattern on the inside. There is no idler, just the two pulleys and belt. It was not inexpensive, but is working very well.
