I love these kinds of technology

So there is a cavity left on the bottom where the saildrive went? Nice place for growth?

[@upnorthyooper1196]

So is that hole left in the bottom of the boat or is there something missing?

[@iankim3953]

How long time will it running in 4 to 5 knots?

[@Helloverlord]

Nice video, showing lot of bolts has to be tight screwed...

Bonjour, pourquoi le choix d'un sail drive plutot que de garder la ligne d'arbre ? Hello, why the choice of a sail drive rather than keeping the shaft line?

[@embraer1455]

anyone have a good calculator? I'm thinking of just building one and put it online, to figure out how to size the motor, for power, and weight, and size of solar panels.. etc.

[@TheSuperSofasurfer]

Great Video short question how thick ist the plate @0:29 and what kind of material?

[@brianevolved2849]

please would you give detail information link does not work

[@iappsdev]

You don't explain how is it works even on your site. I'd like to see a real system with low fuel consumption, just generator that run for charging batteries and electric motor. See how it is done with Nissan Note, this would be a revolution in marine engines, but what you sale for over 30.000 euro at the moment is crazy expansive and never will work out for the mass market.

[@GrumpyOldMan9]

It looks like you took the entire diesel engine out and replaced it with a battery pack. But how do you charge the engine battery then when you're not entering marinas?

[@championskyeterrier]

TavernSenses: As I understand it, the batteries charge through a combination of hydrogeneration (prop spins the other way while sailing and charges batteries through alternator) and solar. How well this meets the typical daily power needs of a long distance cruiser I don't know.

[@greygag36]

There is also the option of charging off a small generator.

[@rainerzufall689]

The propeller is NEVER spinning the other way!

[@Helloverlord]

It could, with a significant loss of efficiency but no one sail backwards anyway...

[@Nils_Hammarsten]

Solorcells and flip gear backwards. Also fuel cells with alkohol. Always have alkohol in a boat....

[@deibertmichael]

Hope steering area is a water type bulb head! Seal looks scary!

[@gilhenry1]

€ ?

[@run4muck507]

Are these guys already out of business? Don't see anything new.

[@grantmyers7593]

you are going to want to keep a portable generator around.
