I wonder if a golf cart motor like yours is enough to get my boat moving out of the marina and get out of trouble once in a while, I have a 37ft steel classic weighting 18000 lbs.
how long last your 3 batteries?

22 hp
5.5 to 7.5 electric replaces 22 hp gas
I should be able to maintain hull speed at 2/3 power

Hi Mr. cheapskate, Can you beat this. given a golf cart with a 36 v charger and comtroller. did not know if it worked.
took in for repair, repairman said No Charge = terminals needed cleaning
Went to a very exclusive golf cart sales outfit. bought 2 more golf carts for $100.00 each and the owner gave me a third one for free;
one of the carts has a 11 hp electric motor which bolts up to my colombia 30 drive shaft.
I plan on useing a free DONUT from a Mercedes drive line to connect cart axle to drive shaft.
sold one golf cart for $100.00 and traded 3rd cart for the electrial and mechanical installation in my boat.
Cash spent so far conversion $100.00 plus $345.00 for three new marine batteries from WallMart.
There has to be an unplanned ending to this Too Good To Be True Story

I am working up plans to convert my 22 ft daysailer to electric and I'm looking to do it as economically as possible (OK, I'm a cheapskate). I have noticed that there are motor controllers out there running everywhere from about 35 bucks for a 1000W 36V controller advertised for e-scooters up to more than 500 bucks for a top end model that will probably make my coffee in the morning. I looking at using a manta motor with 36V power. What advice do you all have out there that will keep me from making a costly (or cheap, as the case may be) mistake.
