Electric Propulsion for Boats [Mathys, Charles A] on desertcart.com. *FREE* shipping on qualifying offers. Electric Propulsion for Boats Review: Nice book; dated information - Very well written, practical book, detailing his journey. Unfortunately, the technology is about 10 years behind the times. I suggest the author or publisher take a stab at modernizing. There is good info in there, if you can find the nuggets. Review: Good read - Not a bad read for getting your feet wet on making an EV for water. It covers hulls, batteries, speed controlling and motors. Along the way is a few efficiency graphs from various builds.

Not bad.
Provided some needed insight into my own effort to go electric. Much of it is well written and easy enough to understand. Some of it was way over my head technically, but still enough down to earth stuff to be helpful. Does spend a bit too much time on AC motors, which are not yet practical for battery powered craft, and he missed completely the permenant magnet motors such as Etek, PMG and LEMCO. Still there is a lack of published information in this area, and he does make a definate start.

Although mostly the same as the latest version of the book it is still worth having for somone interested in finding more details about low voltage electronic control of AC motors.
