Fred,
Your post got me to thinking about repowering my Ericson 32 along the same lines. It occurred to me that wouldn't it be great to have a central website with all of the members builds together in one place for easy research. I teach web design and would be willing to build and maintain a website with as many projects as we can find. Photos, specifications, costs, sources, etc, on a range of boat sizes... challenges, successes, etc. Having everything together in one place that is easy to navigate would be a real benefit to anyone wanting to begin a project of their own.
What does the group think? I'm game.

Hi! I did a conversion of a Tartan 27, which we are very happy with. Ours has the Thunderstruck 8.5kw kit, which is now the 5kw kit, which is more accurate. i believe if you go to 72V that will may require stricter Coast Guard regulations, but I could be mistaken. Mine is 48V. We have about 3-4 hours of range using Trojan 8V, 190 amp batteries. You may find your range will be minimal using 75Amp batteries. A freind of mine did a conversion of a Bombay Clipper, I don't think a 31 though. He went with the Marine Propulsion kit, which was a very nice set-up. Good luck!
