Thanks Fred, I hadn¡¯t consider that possibility - how did you do,
using a petrol outboard as a basis?

I have a home made electric outboard that
charges under sail, though it slows the boat some.
Hi
there, I'm new here and I wonder if you could give me any
hints on this question that I have been unable to answer
(in the positive) by using google and sending questions to
manufacturers. I have a 30ft sailing catamaran that has
twin petrol outboards sitting in wells in the cockpit. As
the cat has daggerboards and retractable rudders, I would
not like to fit pod or saildrive type motors to the hulls,
but instead replace the existing outboards. However I felt
with the lower range of the electric motors - not to
overload the boat with batteries - it would be necessary
to recharge on long sailing passages - hence my question.
Many thanks in advance!
Caio
