That is the same guy I talk about sometimes who has the two electric cars. This is a great boat from what I can see and when we ran the numbers for our 12/24 volt system, they looked pretty good... Here's my electric, 4 - 12v batteries, 48 volts http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5MKjbXltAew&feature=plcp Mikek Oh, no! A go-cart that doesn't use fossil fuel! The hard core righties will go insane!!
