    Would it be possible to design say a commercial fishing boat to run on battery power with solar for days or weeks? Leaving the deck open for equipment and the crew to move around on

    It's on the video (lower down on the page) "1 hour at full speed, 2-3 hours at 20 mph, and all day at 6-8 mph".

    2 - 50 KW motors, 80 KWH battery, so I guess the motors are max'd out at 40 KW (?) for full speed
