And best of all, you can build with readily available materials, only six 1/4" x 4' x 8' plywood panels are used for the hull and interior panels. there are two different sets of plans available for the lo voltage; when using the electric drive propulsion system, or when the electric motor will drive a conventional prop shaft system.. But you can easily build an electric boat that can be trailered to run for 2 hours a day and recharge via large solar panels, although you may have to load and unload the batteries for every launch/trip. so the specs are everything to this discussion.. The etek motor in the 15' electric launch is built by briggs & stratton for robots and small electric vehicles. it will handle 12-48 volts and will produce a maximum of 8 hp at about 4000 rpm. in the boat it is setup with a 4:1 reduction and running 24 volts rpm at the prop is about 450..
Peter will build your launch for you - for further details go to www.vanheldenbotenbouw.nl. right is the 17'9" indian runner haida originally built with a 12hp dolphin inboard, then converted to steam and now powered by an sem 1.5kw 48 volt electric motor with 8 x 6 volt 200 ah batteries and 20 amp zapi charger.. Lo voltage electric boat plans for home boat building, electric launch for quiet family cruising. p ropelling a boat with an electric motor is hardly new. in the late 1800's electric powered boats, some as large as 60.. Direct quote from an aluminum boat owner... as an owner since 5 years of an aluminum boat i could not agree more with your preference for this material. she is a great boat and requires very little in the way of maintenance..
