Boat Pics

I thought I might add some pics of the boat here to give everyone an idea of what our boat looks like now and through the construction phase. We rebuilt the inside completely. When we got it, it was gutted. It had no inside left, and no motors. We added a dive/motor platform on the back, and use a 115 Johnson for a rudder along with an electric outboard I built for propulsion. We have run 3 miles per hour in the past, but with my prop re-sized I should be able to go an average of 5 mph. That isn't fast, but we are neither in a hurry or willing to put fuel in the gas motor.

  1. hi, I purchased a 1970 34' trojan houseboat and have always wanted to convert it to electric. Do you have detailed drawings for your set up? I'm an electrician and I've never done any solar work.
