[Electric Boats] Re: Electric Ericson 27 Long Beach California

 


Hi all,
Here is a few photos of how the electric conversion has been going so far.

You were right Mike, Getting the old motor out was a bit of a chore so hopefully the rest of the install will go smoothly. I will post more pics in a couple weeks when I get back to the boat. The old shaft coupling is fighting me pretty bad so my next step is to try some heat.
liquid wrench, pully puller, and a BFH are not doing the trick. Also the prop I had bought was marked with the wrong size. Was listed as 3/4 but I measured it at 1". I have since orderd a Propeller bushing for it. Any Comments on these beauties? Do they work?

Thanks for feedback, comments, etc.
