I installed a Sillette 2:1 version (MKII) paired with an Electric Yacht 100ibl system in my Victoria 26 a few years ago. This seems to be a great price--I think I paid about $3500 for my 2:1 Sillette. Based on my research at the time of my repower, this is one of the few options/considerations for an electric repower of a Saildrive. Gear reduction would have to be attained somehow, I believe.
