Re: [Electric Boats] Launched

 

Hi Skip
  Into The Blue is an Alberg 3o. Running with a 100ibl. The newer brushless system on 48 volts. Running a 3 blade 13*12 fixed pitch prop..The difference going in reverse is so much better than the old single cyl diesel with its 2 blade 13*7
Its a lot better going forward as well,no waiting for a diesel to spool up she just starts moving as soon as you apply throttle

Richard,

What size electric yacht system do you have,  and the voltage? Boat  size?
I have the older i260 at  48 volts that is just  getting installed this week

Into The Blue launched to day..The electric Yacht  system had its first 10 minute run  17-19 amps at 3.1 knots..
Not long enough for a real test but just about right on target for the estimates..Nice and quiet and docking is now not something to worry about..  Performance figures will come later..Went both with and against the tide. not a lot of wind
