Re: [Electric Boats] Re: 31' Sailboat Conversion

 

I'm just curious if your batteries were down to 5% and you had a 1/2 hour to get back to port. How long would it take a 2000 watt honda generator to get batteries back up to 25% ?

Hi! I did a conversion of a Tartan 27, which we are very happy with. Ours has the Thunderstruck 8.5kw kit, which is now the 5kw kit, which is more accurate. i believe if you go to 72V that will may require stricter Coast Guard regulations, but I could be mistaken. Mine is 48V. We have about 3-4 hours of range using Trojan 8V, 190 amp batteries. You may find your range will be minimal using 75Amp batteries. A freind of mine did a conversion of a Bombay Clipper, I don't think a 31 though. He went with the Marine Propulsion kit, which was a very nice set-up. Good luck!
