Re: Ang.:[electricboats] One engine down...looking for solutions/suggestions

Hi Flip,

Am waiting on details of the new ePropulsion 10kW Evo (regen) pod drive although the UK dealer has already quoted it to me at £5,600 without VAT. 

It's true though that you would probably want at least 2 x 10kW for your 42ft cat to achieve full hull speed.

The hybrid Betamarine setup including a regen capable 10kW motor is a package developed with Hybrid-Marine in Hampshire (https://betamarine.co.uk/resources/Sales_Brochures/Hybrid-KC-SB).

Will post technical details of the ePropulsion 10kW Evo pod drive once I have received them.

Best wishes,
Kai

Hi Kai, 

Will be planning on keeping one diesel for now.  I think the incremental approach will serve us well.  I do like the pod drive idea.  Helps to eliminate more vulnerability in getting rid of the sail drive diaphragm.  Do you have a link to the 10 kw e propulsion pod drive?  Could not find it online.  

Also, is your beta marine/epropulsion system a package?  

Thank you
