Max safe DC voltage in potentially wet conditions is 60V, so getting from 400 down to 60 gives you like 15% of nominal power. Unless you're...
So what power for electric motors you'd consider relatively "safe" or able to go around Cape Horn?
I guess my mind got polluted with things like from this article:...
Sorry, mea culpa, just trying to answer to everyone, and with all the information I'm gathering with my research I missed the details. But you're...

Getting a friend with a FreeCAD since yesterday, i saw there are even FEM analysis available out of the box. Lets see what I can come up with over...
I see your point. Thanks!
Nothing fancy there, just couple of boxes that did let me quickly and roughly estimate how much aluminum I would need for desired dimmensions
I'm an electrical engineer, so nothing exotic from that side for me (and nothing extraordinarily expensive here). Did estimations for: 20kWh peak...
All electric, all aluminum, power catamaran, without anything close to fancy interior (woods, etc) - 150K USD That is rough estimation, might be...
Thanks for your reply!!! Ad1. I feel actually very comfortable with Solvespace, but never thought of it as something I could design a hull with....
Hi! Got some savings over the years and recently thought to start to build an aluminum solar powered catamaran. It is not tons of money, but...
