Awesome job... I would guess you are not going to disturb the beauty of that boat with solar panels, so how are you charging the battries, and what is your range on one charge? Can larger boats like trawlers and tugs be converted?
a bit scary when they are lifting the penta out and it just clears the deck, id have covered the woodwork with a blanket at least ....but beautiful boat......
Anne, Love your toys! Can you recommend resources for someone looking to get started doing conversions? Thinking of doing an electric hydro, something that spins the prop shaft over 10K RPM's. Any ideas on motors?
ITS A CONSPIRACY IMAGINE THE WORLD WITH ELECTRIC MOTORS. NO MORE GAS. An electric car makes no money but a boat can make millions with an electric motor.
I'd hate to have to troubleshoot the wiring nightmare. I bet there are simpler electric set ups. Batteries, Variable speed drive controller, small motor and a speed control lever. Plus I'd have a back up motor.
That boat is straight up gorgeous. From the wood to the steel it is amazing.
Beautiful boat, a real knockout!
Love the boat! Electric is the way to go. you need all your connection water tie.
Some details left out: at 90kW (the sweet spot) , how long can you go?
Beautiful boat! I hope it is still serving you well. I would say put some solar panels on her but I'd hate to cover that wood work!
she really moves good
Boris Johnson emerging from the engine room was a bit of a shock!

Some serious electrical wiring - great job. Hate to think what a salt water environment might do to reliability..

That Penta looks good.
Is it possible to adapt cvt for the electric motor?
Hi folks, would there be a cause in changing the size of the prop and or the pitch since converting to a electric motor ?
why did you use a reverse gearbox? The electric motor could just spin the other way right?
Wooow!! Congrat!!!
What motor are being used here?
I didn’t know Gary busey worked on boats
Bravo

You have to add more motors' watts and increase the ampheres of the battery and reach the speed of your boat up to 50 knots....
The gubbins takes up so much room!, I thought there might be a little cabin in front....need to check on the source of the winey noise
Did you guys consider putting a different prop with the torque you have with that 11" DC power?

Does the toilet work?. Open the engine bay and take a dump?
What is the run time at cruising speed?
The weight of the electric set up?

Is it possible to install a Tesla engine?
cool
What is the cost as I need conversion for my sail boat.
What I find such a let down is the fact that someone posts and awesome video and then just ignores everyone.
yeah , no feedback from the company.......I thought the flow of opinions and ideas would be obvious.....
You should shame them into replying in the comment section. Heard that works great.

where are the aditional solarpanels ,or windmill ssss :)
No solar ?
Beautiful old boat, sound is a bit different now! LOL
just watched your video. and I was wondering as nice as that boat looks why not convert the prop drive to jet drive. it would be more efficent.
Who’s here from Now You Know? 👍🏻
Hair can you tell there related ?
I would have went Lithium over those heavy heavy batteries.
they did, those look like lithium iron phosphate cells
@Aluminium workboat project i have been eyeing them up for a project myself, they look really good!
Vampier bare are bater theniyhum baters
electric great power battery take the space make battery part of boat body
this is the crap that happens when fuelprices get insanely high as they are today. just sad in a world filled with oil.
hahhaa. Started in american English and then changed to Amsterdam "platt" Dutch.. LOL
Destroyed a beautiful boat. It sounds like a kitchen mixer. Why not just run it on biofuels and keep the engine.
You can do that with your boat, they however did their thing with theirs.
Glastron is not a beautiful boat ,it's the worst made production boat ever ,
Great for a experiment

Wat kost zoiets laten bouwen en motor erbij ?
