I am in no hurry to abandon my A4, but it occurs to me that:
1. it will come to the end of its life one day, and
2, electric (motor/battery) technology keep getting better.
3. The prospect of using the motor as a generator when hull speed is reached is a bit charming too.
The idea of an electric motor, a bank of batteries and a little backup diesel (or gas) generator is quite attractive. Has anyone gone further than me in researching/thinking this through?
