Electric Sailboat Motor Range Test | How Far Can We Go???
The wind's not blowing, but we're still going! In this video, We’re breaking down how far our1971 Pearson 35 can go on an electric motor alone.
After months in the boatyard, we made some serious upgrades to improve the boat's efficiency, including:
-Swapping the old 2-blade sailing prop for a new 3-blade feathering prop.
-Sealing up the centerboard cavity on the bottom of the keel.
-Fairing the bottom of the hull for a smooth finish.
With these changes, we've seen a huge improvement in speed and range under power. We'll test it all out and see just how many nautical miles we can get!
What do you think is the most efficient upgrade we made to the boat? Let me know in the comments below!
