Real size eletric boat?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version

Hi

Is it possible to use one of the big brushless motor sold here in the real size boat?

I want to make an electric power boat or jet ski that can plane with one person onboard.

What motor and battery will manage something like that? Have looked at these:

	i dont think you will get the performancee you are looking for. go to electra-craft and see what electric motor and esc's they have. Kerry is their service manager and he is pretty smart when it come to this stuff. he is the one you will want to talk to.
