Just in case, my article about a visit to what's left of an old boom

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

Oh, no! A go-cart that doesn't use fossil fuel! The hard core righties
will go insane!!
