I took a look at the Thoosa system. As a manufacturer (not of propulsion systems or anything boat related) I am not impressed. They are simple assembly off the shelf components. From what I can tell, they don't really manufacture anything, except maybe some mounting brackets. This is not a bad thing. I'm just saying that they are doing what a lot of us skilled hobbyists are doing now.
