Reasonable weight and volume limits leave you with lithium or NiMH. In the event of an accident lithium could sink the vessel so unless a possible retreat to a Zodiac is in your future you are left with NiMH.

To get you somewhere. The break even point vs diesel is many, many years unless you are a commercial outfit.
The exceptions would be if you have money to burn and want to "one-up" your fellow yacht club members or you
Want to go electric just for the halibut.
