When last I had my EU2000i onboard and at maximum output, I was able to run continuously, all day long driving 2 chargers delivering 20amps each into 36v---i.e. about 1440watts of charging.

Hi,
I am looking at a thunderstruck 5kW kit and adding on a Honda 2000 generator to increase range for times when the wind is gone (like up here in the PNW in the summer!).
My boat is a 6000# wooden sailboat with an LOA of 25, and an LWL of about 21-22ft.
What are peoples' experiences with such a setup. What is their resulting cruising speed
when they are running on the generator for an extended time? Strictly from calculations I am estimating I could run at about 2.3 kts. Does this sound right?
Any advice, experience, good stories, etc. are appreciated!
regards, peter
