  • Part 1 - THE DESIGN
    In this video series i remove the diesel engine and upgrade to an all electric motor sailboat.
    Sailboat diesel to electric boat conversion.
    In this video (Part 1) I discuss the electric sailboat motor design. What are the components of electric sailboat motor conversion and where i got all my electric sailboat motor conversion components.
    Electric Drive Engineering has been acquired by Jack, who is basically selling the holly grail, a easy, all in one system. Check them out a Powerflow Marine. Basically the refined final version to what i have.

    Oh thank you so much, I was totally confused when searching how to convert. Except if you buy the "special converting kits" or "sailboat electric motors", where you pay thousands of euro and then it's simpler lol

    Hi, researching, seen your Q's on OpenRov, but remember watching this when published.
    12 months on, hindsight thoughts, etc, would be interesting.
    I know you said the guy from thunder was pushing 72v, but any reason you simply didn't go with their 12KW Cooled 48v Kit for $3.5K (no mounting).
    Electric drive has 10kW kit, no price listed, like motenergy, guess I'll have to call them.
    But, wonder if 10kW will satisfy.

      12kw would have been fine I just wouldn’t have had that slight extra power the vary rare times I’ve used it. You’ll have to relook at the graph in the third part of my motor series to see what speed you’ll be missing out on (as per my boat). Also something to note, when there was heaps of growth on the bottom of my boat I basically only had half speed (ie batteries ran out much quicker)

    Why not direct Shaft drive? Can it regen?

    • @slightadrift
      @slightadrift  3 месяца назад

      If it turns it should be able to regenerate power bud 👍

    Why Liquid cooled? Isn't that more complicated and error prone than air-cooling?

    • @slightadrift
      @slightadrift  3 месяца назад +1

      With the amount of power capable of being transferred, and the heat that creates, I think liquid is the best means of achieving cooling. With my setup at least

    Would you have liked a Saildrive and opted for a dropinsystem with the Shaftdrive?

    • @slightadrift
      @slightadrift  3 месяца назад

      Saildrive is only beneficial with alignment. Doing away with the coupler and aligning the motor assembly would be the benefits. My system works well tho
