Hi
I am about to go electric on a Herreshoff H28 28Foot 4000KG ( I think that weight is correct) - expect 2-3 hrs of run time on a battery bank costing around $1400NZD - TBC
I think Thunderstruck looks a great option and will most likely go with that at around $2300USD + plus extra gauges possibly.
I hope to get assistance from these guys who have done this for years and have the electrical knowledge to put this together and are currently in New Zealand.
So my pick is
Just starting down the track but will post a cost sheet and a final result as I get underway- I am over the diesel smell and had numerous issues with an old 15HP Ford - they do chug for hours but for us, it's about sailing on the right days by watching the weather carefully and we stay with the Hauraki Gulf here in New Zealand. Never have a time you have to be back home - it never happens!
Will keep in touch and any ( hopefully positive ) feedback and advice are really appreciated.
Richard
