The sun was in my eyes ...
I only had one battery turned on ...
I was set-up for salt water ...
With so much torque , It was prop walking to the right ... '
They told me in tech , the hull wasn't 22' long so I had to take it easy ...
I didn't want to floor it and embarrass the porkchops ...
OK .. OK ... So it's a ******* mutt ...

He had trouble.
Aborted one pass, didn’t see another.
An Action w/what looks like a 3.0 based Merc converted to electric.
The cowling in the boat says 420 hp!I'd rather be competitive w/junk I built in my garage than win w/stuff I bought.
I refuse to allow common sense to interfere w/my boat buying decisions.

Man card permanently revoked just for hanging that motor on a boat. Driving it earns you a Bruce Jenner card.

ANTI40It's just an idea.

From the pic it looks like the boat may be kinda heavy? It's not flying like an Action normally does.

Yes , 3.0 / 3.2 Opti-pop .. lots of grenaded ones still out there to choose from.
420 HP .. yep , from motor's and batteries not "yet' available.
But you just wait ... LOL
I have heard those special few at the track ... It'll go quicker , It's got way more in it. Well ... big Duuuuu , why didn't you just do it ... LMAO
I hovered around 198 - 199 for about a year . Was it a 200 mph car ??? Nope , not until I made some changes .. then it went 201 .
It's good to be optimistic .. counting your chicken's before they hatch .. is foolish .

And what exactly is success? Just the fact that this boat exist demonstrates an utter failure in the education system worldwide. Please explain success when it comes to golf cart boat chimera abominations.
Electric modes of transportation were abandoned over a hundred years ago. We knew then that no battery would ever exist that could compete with a fuel source located where the energy was being used.ANTI40It's just an idea.

Awwww, let them play with their toys. Give em an "atta boy" once in awhile. They fighting an uphill battle with this battery power. Back to the weight of the batteries and big wires, maybe a 1000#s. Then the motor. It can't be very light. 400#?
