Favorite Tesla story. About a week after hurricane irma, an electrician friend was working on restoring power somewhere when this chucklehead pulls up in his Tesla to ask him when the chargers at the airport will be fixed. He only had 11% left on his battery.
These are the kind of people that think electric cars are more than just a golf cart. The mindset of someone who would drive 200 plus miles into a disaster area, that wasn't estimated to have its power restored for another 3 weeks while expecting the charging stations that were under 6 feet of saltwater 5 days ago to be working is something I'll never understand.ANTI40It's just an idea.

I literally just finished an article about the proliferation of all the electric boat startups recently. Interestingly, a couple of them have brought back hydrofoils, thinking it's a good design. Most of these are novelty projects, the batteries cost more than most comparable boats. There's a link in the article to another article about 48 volt mild hybrid systems and how that could work, where they assist the gas engine.

Your just like L.W. make a scene and then run to Greg when you make an idiot out of yourself ... he's this , he's that ... whaaaaa .. daddyyyyyy
Here is my political rant ..... "commie / theifin /Joemalla admin"
Which is quite applicable since we are talking about different types of energy , and naturally .. why gasoline has jumped a $1.00 and some places more since the election.
You on the other hand , try to give me a scolding speech about politics .. then do a copy and paste that says nothing except for that it reek's of libtardness.
Then post it twice more ...
I like how you reference me as being like POTUS Trump .. as both having mental issues ... Lets see what we have for a final tard responce after three attempts ..
300 gallons of marine gas for 292.00 which is .97 cents a gallon .
300 gallons of 87 for 273.00 which is .91 cents a gallon .
300 gallons of red diesel for 223.00 which is .74 cents a gallon .
Your words ... not mine .... Pppppffffttttttttt Pea Brain
What's next in the tard play book , racist , homophobic , misogynistic ... ???

The part of my brain that loves the 4th of July for the fireworks, is the part of my brain that ties rocks to expired flairs, lights them then throws them overboard to watch them burn into the abyss, really wants to see what happens when that that much lithium sinks.

You do know that Texas oil shale became ghost town after ghost town, oil rigs off line...
I read it that Texas shale could take 2 years to get back the output they were at
But all you know is gas is up so it must be... Get back to welding

Holy cow Charlie, wildly thrusting politics into this thread and throwing inappropriate personal insults at that guy... it's a thread about developing battery technology and it's relevance to boating. I wouldn't've thunk it'd be possible for such a topic to devolve into this... makes me sad tbh
What makes me happy is all the innovation that appears to be happening, and all of the new manufacturers that have developed new electric outboards in anticipation of more energy-dense batteries. Check them out:
https://plugboats.com/electric-outbo...ess-than-5-kw/
https://plugboats.com/electric-outboards-more-than-5kw/
Best part is, very few of them are out of China. Almost all of them are relatively new companies from America and Europe. It's the first time in many decades that we've had so many competing outboard manufacturers

Holy Guacamole, my political speech was FOUR WORDS LONG ...
Personal assaults .. are against anyone who made it past the third grade .. lets look at a couple examples, shall we ...
Math ... (from triplicate, take your pick)
I just got 300 gal of marine gas 292.00
English ... (from post #67)
I read it could that Texas shale 2 years
Non hai idea di quanto mi faccia male alla testa leggere quello che scrive l'idiota vilage. Un attacco davvero.
Rand sembra che tu stia cercando di essere il presidente vise di quell'esclusivo club.
If either of you .. can hold a crisp 9 -V battery to your tongue and sing
"Jimmie crack corn" at the same time .. I'll listen to ya ...
Until then, as Dave says ..
Batteries are for kids........I like the Iron horse

Easy...... every car has a power plant........battery car.... needs one some where.......Failed in 1920 against IC cars....the #s will never add up on usage/cost. Tired of waiting in line for a gas up? try 20 cars in front of you for a charge up. Why 20? just a make up #.......but waiting will add to the #/ line. At home charging at night? with solar ....... HeeHee...... Just watched some J Leno shorts about steam cars...... good power but not for Mom..... she likes a key start 4 cycle that she don't know where the the things under the hood go/ do....... Just the phone sonny. Lots of people in this country can't even afford their electric bill.

Think what the capacity of battery will be needed for a boat that gets the equivalent of 2 miles to the gallon vs a car that gets 20mpg. How much longer that large battery will need to charge and how unusable that boat will be because of it. If I plan a big day for the boat I throw a 2 or 5 gallon jerry can of gas in the boat in case I don’t find a marina, maybe there will be a reasonable potable battery available to do the same thing for electric boats but unlikely. Is something like a portable battery to add extra range currently available for Tesla owners?
