    Re: Auxillary Motor mount

    You can use a electric trolling motor if u run dual batteries so u have enough juice just get a transom mount trolling motor and clamp it onto the side rear of the hull as far back and use that

    Not sure what kind of km's u would get tho

    1 us gallon of fuel = 27 100 a/h deep cycle batteries and weighs 3 odd litres v 800kg of batteries nothing beats fuel for energy density apart from nuclear fuels

    a proper sailing prop will perform miles ahead of a stock prop designed for pushing asmall tinny
    they use 9-10hp outboards to bring 2 tonne sailing boats in
