Re: [Electric Boats] Conversion

 

Dennis,

I can't say for sure, but I doubt you could find large enough BLDC motors for that application.  If you contact D&D Motors, https://www.ddmotorsystems.com/  They have shunt-wound motors for the marine industry.  They supply for Duffy boats.  I think their "normal" largest is the 16.4 H.P and a max capability (on land) of 25Kw.  They use Curtis Contrillers, but there are several others like Sevcon and Kelly that may work too.

The design and installation is not dificult if you can do a bit of fabricating and see the job from start to finish.

Good luck and Press on,
Dan H.

Subject: [Electric Boats] Conversion





 

A Tollycraft 26, weighing 9,000#, with two screws. My wife and I are going to live aboard in Santa Barbara, so we are not planning to get up on plane, or cruise very far, and we're happy with 6 knots. I'll get a generator if we ever want to go further than the Channel Islands. Kits seen a bit pricey, and I'm pretty handy, so I'd like to do the work.


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I'm excited about having two electric screws. I'm imagining spinning around in the middle of the Harbor, quietly! I'm trying to find components that are good quality, at a reasonable cost.


Thank you very much!
