Does anyone with experience in the efficiency have insight in how well
a setup like this can work?

(Other than stating the obvious from the specs: Wilbur, 10 kW are 34
hp that would be pretty good, even 17 hp for 24 hr run time. Engine
specs would be peak power.)

I would like to know what countinous power output one could _really_
expect; with other words, were they cruising or drifting?

Thanks!

Good day,

what do you guys (especially the solar cell experts) think of this
boat?

The specs say two motors using 8kw each for 16kw total and two 5kw
arrays producing 10kw total.

So they're producing less power than they use. Hmmmmm! I'd say they got
problems. Probably have a diesel generator tucked in one of the hulls.
