Re: [electricboats] Configuration for converting 1963 Mercury outboard to electric?

Let's assume 24hp is good for 'cruising speed'  That's 18kW at the prop, but considering drivetrain losses, let's go with 20kW input.  The real number is probably higher.

 

So 20kWh of battery will get you that one hour of cruising.  Using LFP chemistry, your battery weight will be around 250lb.
