The below information was supplied by my motor vendor for my 2021 Marshall Sanderling (2200 lb. Cape Cod Cat sailboat). It's not quite what you're looking for but I think it'll put you in the ballpark.
I outfitted the boat with two Mastervolt MLI Ultra 24/5500 in parallel to a 2.5kW BLDC motor from QuietTorque. It is overkill for a daysailer but I have intentions of making a Cape Cod rounding one day in her, and I like the extra range/safety margin, so that's what I went with. I have not had the time/opportunity to verify these range numbers, my observations of hull speed to power draw are in line with the first table. I looked into the generator option but my sailing needs have not made its purchase appealing to date. The system is mated to a Chargemaster Plus III 80/24V.

I am looking to repower a 22ft Norwegian wooden boat with an electric motor. The boat weighs in the 2500-3000 lb range. The 5kW thunderstruck kit would probably do, but their advice is to get a 10kW kit because the motor is air cooled and not sealed. I am ok with that advice. This is not a sailboat I am looking at continuous power draw for 4-5 hours. On a sailboat I have used a Minn-Kota for getting in/out of the marina with good results.
The question comes to sizing the battery pack. Does anyone have real world numbers for speed and amp draw for a small boat like this? My goal is to be able to cruise 20nm, perhaps 30 in a stretch. I am thinking somewhere in the 4 kt range.
Secondly, any real world experience using a regular 2000W generator to power the charger while the small boat is underway?
Any guidance or pointers appreciated.
Cheers, peter
