Hi George.
The tax credit comment is a nice teaser, but I have yet to hear from a single person that has received a tax credit for the conversion of an ICE powered boat to electric. I know that California doesn't have any credits that are available to boaters. Car conversions have had some credits available over the years (I don't think that there are any credits available right now) and of course, there are many credits available for putting solor panels on private homes and commercial property.
So if you have specific information about available credits, i.e. which states, the amount of the credit, when the credits will expire, etc. then please share them here.
Fair winds,
