Hi,

Two 48V battery chargers (110V input, 48V output)
Two 48V battery banks (Four 12V deep cycle batteries in series)

This is MINIMAL endless propulsion. (till gen gas runs empty)

motoring/sailing and for 110V cabin equipment.
Shore power recharges batteries dockside (2-10hours)
Barely enough power to gunk hole St Pete to Keys 2012.

One 12V battery charger

Second motor for stern left/right steering positioning.
