On pages 69, 70 and 71 there are pictures of a Dufffy electric boat


just like the one my neighbor has - no exotic technology, just a bunch


of golf cart batteries.

Back before I came to SW, a fellow I know who was a retired Whelen


Engineering, Engineer had a bunch of old wheelchair motors and wanted


to make a copy of this boat. 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
