Ok I looked at a 315 and see it was a sailboat. There was a picture of a power boat in the news release so figured it was one as far as the folding prop goes. I still don't see any large advantage to folding props based on the amount of problems people have had with them and only gaining a knot of speed but to each his own. Plus I have regen so don't want to loose that.

I'm not sure I understand the need for a folding prop. The elimination of the sail drive is an improvement feature that should make anyone owning one stand up and look. Also 2 to 4 Li batteries and going 30 miles? That seems rather ambitious do to the boats weight. Maybe they mean "packs".

Here's a larger version of the rudder-mounted EP usually only seen on smaller boats.
It will be interesting to see if this catches on and how well it holds up.
