I am building a 60 foot aluminum sailyacht and considering using diesel electric propulsion with 2 identical diesel enigins of 70 -
100 hp. The builder is not very experienced in ths field so I am doing some fieldwork myself .

Anyone with experience in diesel eletric solutions in this size for sailing yachts?

Cheers.
