[Electric Boats] Hello, New to group - do I have enough data to consider conversion?

 

Hello,

This looks like an awesome group! I would like to take the next step in an electric conversion but am not sure if I have or can even get enough data to due the job right. Here is what I know about my houseboat(this info comes from a brochure I found).

1975 Kings Craft Houseboat
Length 55'
Beam 15'
Draft 33"
Weight 18,500 Lbs.
Hull Bottom 3/16" Aluminum
Hull Sides 1/8" Aliminum
Hull description - Modified vee which tapers down to a full length
keel that doubles as a water tank.
Engines - 2 225hp Chrysler with vee-drives and
2:1 reduction gears.
Drive: 1 1/4" stainless steel propeller shafts.
Propeller: 4 blade (I need to measure it)
Speed: 28Mph

What other data would I need to start considering a conversion project?

Thanks for looking!
