Good point gonzo.

How about a station on the mooring dock that plugs into the boat.

Specialized propeller, nice and big with lots of gearing...

I think that an electric boat can be very economical. A backup generator to recharge the batteries would be nice. To charge with current, a dedicated generator would be more efficient and cheaper.
