Re: ePropulsion Pod Drive 6
I have the ePropulsion Navy 6.0 Evo (remote control, long shaft) on my five-meter power catamaran (Electra). So not quite what you're asking about, but close. I've had the motor for about a year and

ePropulsion Pod Drive 6
Is there anyone with experience with the ePropulsion Pod Drive 6? I'm seriously thinking of buying one but I've currently got two concerns; 1. What are the realistic chances of the seal failing and

Re: Lots of questions
Did you get a response to your question Rommy? What conditions will you be experiencing with this boat as it makes a big difference?

Re: Electric Sailboat for sale WA state
Hi Ryan I would like to come up and see it. We will be in Vancouver in a month. I am finishing up an electric re-power here in Oxnard on a Mariner 31 Ketch. Heard good thing about the Thunderstruck.

Re: Splitting 48V System Into Two Boxes?
Matt is of course 100% correct on the fineness of the welding cable strands being more susceptible to corrosion.? Finer strands _do_ lower the inductance though, which might be an advantage

Re: Splitting 48V System Into Two Boxes?
Go ahead and use it if you wish however its incorrect and dangerous to say "there is nothing wrong with it". Before marine cable was available boat builders used it. They do not anymore. It will not

Nothing wrong with welding cable. I and many others have used it for many years without any issues. *Paul J. Thompson*Information Technology Manager Henry Brooks Co. (t/a Bathroom Direct) M 64 21

Re: Splitting 48V System Into Two Boxes?
Just an FYI. Welding cable is not advised on a boat.? Its not tinned and has very fine strands which will corrode quicker. Some of it is not resistant to diesel fuel. Diesel can literally melt the

Re: Splitting 48V System Into Two Boxes?
First of all, you can certainly split up a pack into multiple boxes---this has been done since the first EVs were produced back in the late 1800’s. I have no comment about aluminum except to be

Re: Splitting 48V System Into Two Boxes?
The leads you should really worry about being long are the high current wires.? If they're just sense wires, then they draw minimal current so don't worry about that length so much...within reason

Splitting 48V System Into Two Boxes?
I have a question about the feasibility of splitting up my 280 amp hour 48 V system into two aluminum battery boxes, that I will be custom making making. I am constrained on the space in my Newport 28

Re: Kiwiprop
UPDATE. I finally removed the Kiwiprop and replaced it with a 14x16 3 blade prop. I now have zero vibration and it performs very well. I found that the Kiwiprop got gunked up with growth quite

Re: Recommendation for 48 v inboard motor + generator.
+1 to this - I just wasn’t going to plug it because I’m a lithium battery dealer ;-) If you can start with a smallish lithium bank you will save on hassle, frustration, and accessories.

Re: Recommendation for 48 v inboard motor + generator.
I would concur about skipping the AGM batteries unless you already have them and even then I would consider switching straight to lithium. Take it from someone who ran lead acid for 10 years and over

Re: Recommendation for 48 v inboard motor + generator.
I’ll second Dan - I love my 10kw in a similar size and weight and occasionally wish it had just a little more oomph, especially in strong tidal curents against the wind. It’s enough to be safe,

Re: Recommendation for 48 v inboard motor + generator.
I'll second the suggestion for the Thunderstruck 12kW kit. I used that in my Pearson 10M (12,400 lbs) with great success. With the 10kW motor I would be running at 70-8% for standard cruise.

Re: Recommendation for 48 v inboard motor + generator.
I went with the Thunderstruck 10Kw kit in my Kirby 30, it's working great.? The boat's lighter than yours (~6,000 lbs) so you'd probably want to go with their 12KW kit, the only issue is that it's
