[Electric Boats] Electric boats

 



I am a new member and am considering the build of a small wooden electric powered launch.  I have in mind a 15 foot Selway Fisher design intended for steam power.  Steam machinery tends to be heavy and low powered which would make it suitable for battery electric power.  I am looking at Thunderstruck motors for supply of machinery.  Batteries will probably be sealed gel cells unless the price of lithium cells come down a whole heap.


I will be keen to hear of anyone's experience in this kind of vessel.

Cheers
