Electric pleasure boats

[Unik]

I found a company on the Internet that produces electric pleasure boats.
Boats of rather high quality and at a very good price, ideal for rental.
They claim that one battery charge is enough for 6-8 hours of swimming, do you think this is real?

I have a 14 ft O'Day Javelin, converted to electric with a 14 x 17 three blade prop at 400RPM. The boat uses a 3/4 horsepower 24 VDC PM motor, belt drive reduction, with two group 27 12 volt deep cycle marine lead-acid batteries in series. I can cruise at 5 MPH with full 24 volts (full speed) for about 4 hours with this setup.

The boats you have pictured may use less power, and with what batteries? So the cruising time they estimate may be realistic.
