Peter,
Personally for me if I had your boat and in considering costs etc, I'm pretty sure I'd go with a capable water cooled geared motor, minimal Lithiums and an AC enclosed quiet-ish genset, with some solar, which to my mind would end up the most cost effective.
Then I'd use the electric only when bimbling in/out and around the quite places, bird watching etc and run the genny for longer runs. It's surprising on a larger boat just how quiet a genset can be.
Horses for courses everywhere we look. I guess if I were a vendor my first question before specs would be - what is your budget, as without that and knowing your aims, it's difficult to say. It's what those on this list (I'm not) are there for - to ask. I'm just a hobbyist that works 5 hours a week for a company that makes the bits that can compliment the systems sold by companies.
I'm likely like many on this list then - just playing even though sometimes it makes no financial or time sense!
John
