| I have been adding up the numbers and seems electric has to go as the batteries are toooooo heavy at 320kg for 16... and the genset at 100kg or so plus water plus fuel plus plus plus........ are ****...... time to throw some unnecessary ballast overboard (well to NOT buy some of it) so 150kg for the batteries or I could get down to 55AH & 48V from 4 batteries at 48v as a "buffer" for the electric motors and 4 (24v & 110AH to drive the inverter/s) set up for the galley/house, with the lighter weight electric torqeedos (weighing around 20kg with wiring each) or running off the genset directly and 1000 watts of solarpanels = 100kg, or the full deal = 200kg for 2000watts? or 4 stroke 2 x 15hp outboards??? - - - decisions decisions, decisions Time to do some number crunching on "house" needs, and can I use the same batteries WITH the genset running when using electric outboards (electric outboards do not give much reverse thrust)

| The difference is they are mostly "marina boats" for weekend jollies and slightly extended during vacations... Mine is to be an extended cruise permanent live aboard... there lies the difference and dilemma... Quality (clean/fresh) unleaded petrol is not easy to find in some regions of the south pacific, I can get coconut oil at most villages (they make it - or I can)...

| Judy, Thanks for the thoughts and ideas, - - for a twin, that puts 2 x 100KG plus right aft and defeats the electric galley... which I have mostly got... and the genset which will be delivered today (afternoon or tomorrow)... Mine is a 39-C and the engine in that configuration would have to go forward of that bulkhead partially under the aft berth and almost impossible to remove later.... I also have minikeels...
