Re: [Electric Boats] Introduction

 

are you going to use PbA or Li? (Lead Acid or Lithium)
i'm researching how to run on Li batteries and PV bimini (4-8 cheap PV, 250watt+ panels)

Hi all
I'm new to the group and am looking at the feasibility of repowering a contessa 26 (that we are refitting) with electric.
I'm a little sceptical about the science and capabilities of electric. Weight and range seem to be of greatest issue. It seems that an hour or two at hull speed is about all one can expect from 6 batteries. 6 batteries seem to be quite a weight penalty and have substantial space and cost variables as well.
I'm interested in everyone's comments. Thoughts?
