Electric repower sizing, by boat type
Pick the segment that matches your boat. Each guide describes the realistic power, battery, and cabling envelope — and opens the configurator pre-filled with sensible defaults.
30-foot sailboat electric repower
Sized for typical 30-footers around 4–5 t displacement targeting 5–6 knots under power.
35-foot sailboat electric repower
Mid-size cruisers around 6–8 t — the most common repower target on the market.
40-foot sailboat electric repower
Bigger cruisers and offshore boats — where 96 V starts to make real sense.
40-foot catamaran electric propulsion
Twin saildrives, more space for batteries — but you size each side independently.
Small electric launch / day boat
Light displacement under 1.5 t, short days, simple 48 V system.
Trawler yacht electric / hybrid propulsion
Heavier displacement, longer hours — usually a hybrid case rather than pure electric.
