    Default electric powered boat


    Guys I am looking for ideas on setting up an electric powered boat for electric only lakes. Do you have any ideas about a rig that could reach a plane? I am thinking 14 foot stick steer 48 volt and maybe 2 or 3 Minn Kota 2 HP E-Drives.

    Ray's electric outboards might be another option. I believe their 48 volt is 4 hp.
