Re: [Electric Boats] Re: Electric conversion

Hi there.

I used to get my email info from Electricboats group but now I am getting tons of individual mail from everyone.

Don't know what happened?

I agree with you. I havent found another system that is more cost effective while also allowing me to customize the install to my specs. Having a tough time with betts as well.

Looking at as many websites as possible. I don't see anything better than Thunderstruck. It looks like with 25,700 displacement, I'll need to go with the 18 kw ME1.616 motor.
There seems to be a large price range in batteries. Do solar storage batteries work well. There are some Chinese companies that make these batteries much cheaper than others.

Jeff,
I'm at the beginning stages of refurbishing my CT41. I am starting to dismantle the Yanmar today! You know more than I do.

I have a 42 year old Hunter 30 that I am restoring. I am in the process of getting the small engine compartment ready for a 10kw thunderstruck engine. I would love to hear some of your suggestions on batts, chargers and solar that you would recommend. Thanks.
