In October 2021, Dave and Ruth Noble will be purchasing a Leopard 45 sailing catamaran and refitting it with all-electric propulsion and house systems. This 45 minute presentation examines the current state and future of Sailing Electric and provides lessons learned in the pursuit of a no-holds-barred approach to electric propulsion, electric systems, and electric living.
Topics include:
- Generation (wind, solar, hydro)
- Batteries
- Navigation systems
- Electric ‘budget’; and
- Systems design
Following the presentation there will be time for questions and discussion.
The session is free but requires a simple registration in advance. If there is enough interest, a second session with more detailed information will be provided at a later date.
