Is anyone familiar with this particular product or the technology?
I am interested in replcing my tired A4 on my Bristol 32. I have considered a Diesel but this seems to make so much more sense to me.
I understand that this has been a bone of contention for sailors and I am not looking to start a debate but this technology seems sound for my purpose.
My sailing will tend to swing from travelling down the ICW to cross to the Bahamas, then a slow crawl from island to island where this decision would be best suited. then, of course, the return up the ICW to the Hudson River for the remaining 6 months with short sails during the summer months.
I am considering both wind and solar power as primary recharge while limiting consumption onboard (LED's, no refridge, etc...)
My ony question is if I could use a small genset to power for the long days of gaining distance on the ICW.
Any thoughts??
