Re: [Electric Boats] Re: What kit should I choose?

 

If it is a sailboat you need 1000 kw continuous power per ton of boat.  Your boat being 3.6 tons would make the minimum 3.6 kW continuous power.   Some vendors rate there motors on peak power not continuous. So make sure you are comparing pales to apples.

Thank you Dominic,

I'm a litle confused about the power of the motor. I sent an e-mail for several builders of these kits and some advised me to use a 5Kw motor and others a 10Kw motor.
You think a 5Kw motor is ok for my 30Ft and 7276Lbs?

Best regards,

M
