[Electric Boats] Duffy repower/control options.

 

Hi Guys,


First post here.  Joined the group to learn how people are repowering their boats electrically.     


I have a 1995 Duffy Electric Boat.  I have learned they have gone to extensive lengths to keep their service info off the net and make their repair parts non-standard.  Forcing owners to go to them for parts and service.  Problem with that is; their service sucks.  It is slow and sub-standard, the prices are exorbitant and it's 1950s technology to boot.  


I'm thinking the fix is a complete repower using new standard industry parts,  from the throttle/speed controller and motor.    


I see bits and pieces here and there but does anyone have the whole system figured out.  Say, what they used to repower a 30ft Sailboat?


Don't worry about taking work away from Duffy Employees they are now using Chinese motors and controllers.


Thanks,

Emmett
