Re: Electric drive conversion
An idea has come to mind...: I wonder how many owners would be interested in a rudder electric propulsion..? I realise that this is a meaningless question as it would depend on the cost I imagine! the cost of the motor and the batteries would be quite a lot but I think the more people are interested...

Re: Electric drive conversion
That’s great! Thanks for the pointer!Johan SWE-1870 skrev:There's a drawing of the rudder in the class rule drawings.
The drawing seems to suggest the rudder is tapered from 39mm forward to 10 aft. Am I correct or is this the drawing of the metal insert of the rudder?

Re: Electric drive conversion
I think if you can make a rudder which is a good solution for you to work on. then you can find a donour to install your rudder to test, I believe rudder can be replaced while the boat is in the water. I think it is much easier than asking someone to cut his rudder :shock: that is exactly what I am...

Re: Electric drive conversion
That looks like a very interesting build, I must say. Good work on an interesting project. Where is the boat located? I've also been musing about this conversion, probably following the example on folkboat.de with the rudder-mounted gland motor and folding prop. I sent a query to krautler some time...

Re: Electric drive conversion
Hi, It is good to hear that. First I have checked the minnkota and torquedoo, especially torquedoo get a lot of awards and they worked with Hanse 315 for the electric one, I found them a bit expensive and they really do not have a commercialized solution for the rudder, I think they did the rudder-...

Electric drive conversion
Hi, Congratulations, it sounds like a dream! I have been checking the pod motors to laminate on the rudder of my IF, I have seen that some of them can generate electricity while sailing (propellor turns the motor other way around to generate electricity), do you have such function? I also find out ...

Re: Electric drive conversion
Hi Johan, The batteries are 8 off valence LiFPO4 12V 130 Ah arranged in two parallel strings of 4 batteries in series. The useful energy of this arrangement is about 10KWh. The weight of the batteries is about 20Kg each. I don’t have measured consumption figures yet but here is what I achieved on Mo...

Electric drive conversion
Hi everyone, I want to let you all know that I managed to convert a diesel drive marieholm to electric drive and the results are amazing! The yacht is not mine; it belongs to a good friend. End of last year I joked about converting his yacht to electric as he drives a Tesla and is very much into ren...
