PPJFrompa,
Welcome to ElectricBoats; there is a wealth of info in past posts, and some great info in the links section. Take your time... it sounds like you are not needing propulsion immediately.
My dad used to live in Port Angeles, so I've had the good fortune of kicking around there a bit. If you're ever in the SanFrancisco area, there are several of us e-sailors who would love to give you a demo on our boats.
