Re: [electricboats] 48V 10kW vs 20/30hp ICE

Hi, thanks for your information Jeffrey. Even though I have worked the stats on boat sizes v engine sizes etc, I am very happy with my existing 2 x 30hp Volvos in our 35ft 16500lb displacement catamaran. I wouldn't go less. Anyhow, I am starting by replacing one engine and upgrading the alternator on the other, and go from there.
There's plenty of room for 1 or 2 x 300A 48V lithium bank but still tying loose ends with BMS and max amperage types and arrangements.  I am sure 12-15kW would probably be more aligned with my existing engine setup, but I can't find much in the 48V range.
GM no longer have a 15kW but recommend the 10kW.  Controllers....won't start on these. 
Hence my question, as I won't go 72V unless I really need the 12-15kW size. Cheers.
