Re: [electricboats] repurposing torqeedo 2.0 to inboard engine?

Maybe easier to configure it as a pod drive? Torqeedo makes a 2kW - it isn't as easy as me saying it, but basically configure it in that sort of fashion?

Just my initial .02,  there is probably someone out there who would trade an equiv. inboard elect. for your Torq. OB.  I certainly would, if I had it on hand.  It'll be a lot of engineering to put your's in the bilge.

I have a 28 foot, 5 ton, Tyler Twister (long keel) with a Torqeedo 2.0 mounted on a home made bracket on the (transom hung) rudder. Due to the steeply angled transom, there is no ideal way to mount an outboard, so I am contemplating going back to an inboard engine. What do you guys think of using the Torqeedo 2.0 as an inboard engine? Perhaps a belt drive to the propeller shaft? I'm sure this would void any warranty, but would it work? Would cooling be an issue? Any comments appreciated.
