[Electric Boats] buying a Torqeedo 1003

 

Hi guys,

I have a Torqeedo 1003 on order for my Montgomery 17 sailboat and while I wait I was curious if any of you have had the chance to try this model yet? It seems to have had several improvements over the 801 model (submersible, quieter, larger power/battery) so I am excited to see how it works. I mostly only use my 2.5HP yamaha to launch and retrieve, so it is possible the Torqeedo could become the primary and the yamaha relegated to backup. The 2.5HP at 3/4 throttle pushes my M17 at about 4.5 to 5kts depending on conditons.
