Rich, your post gets to the heart of what I’m wondering – How do you drive a 20kw motor with an 8kw genny without dipping into your batts? Evan, are you achieving hull speed without running the motor at full power?

Attached here are the kw/speed/range charts I received from Oceanvolt in their quote for my 424 which was also for a 20kw motor.
