[QUOTE="MD_Electric_Bass, post: 428251, member: 21721"] Stink, I consulted a reputable electric boat builder in the area before I bought the Ray 48v and he suggested that, with the hull I have, I wouldn't get more than 5 mph. My hope is that I can simply scoot around at a fairly decent pace(relatively speaking for electric) from point A to point B with the Ray, and then get on the bow TM and rip some lips. I did look at torqueedos, but I couldn't pass on the deal I got for the Ray. Also couldn't afford a worthwhile torqueedo, so that made the decision easy enough. Maybe my next motor can be one of their "8-10hp" torqueedo electric outboards. The issue with that, for me and my hull, would be the amount of batteries needed. There are alternatives for the batteries like standalone, single, lithium-ion 48/60V batteries that weigh significantly less, but cost something like $5k-10K... [/QUOTE]
