Greetings!?
Looking for recommendations to go hybrid (series, not parallel) .
I will need a 48 v electric propulsion plus adequate diesel generator/range extender for a 15000 pound full keel 30 footer sailboat, 24”6“ waterline, hull speed 6.5 kn (Baba 30). ?
Getting rid of actual engine, a 3 cylinders 30 hp diesel.
Plan is to start with 4 x 12v 150 Ah ?AGM (just enough to go dock down the basin)?
Switch to high kWh lithium in the future for ocean sailing ?
Will also add solar to the equation.?
I am looking for a diesel generator/range extender that could pretty much keep the batteries up while motoring.?
So, that’s a lot of questions at once:
1 motor ?
2 compatible AGM/lithium controller ?
3 diesel generator?
4 solar??
5 lithium batteries?
6 compatible with all the above +220/110 charger?
7 BMS added if not battery integrated?
Sorry if this is a repeat question but it’s 2023 and it seems that technology is fast evolving!
Pretty please: no 96 nor 72 volts suggestions ?I am sticking with 48, 52 max.
?
All best and in advance, much thanks!
