Great coverage! I'm still on team E-Propulsion. I like the small battery and carry a spare in a storage locker to swap out during the day. Granted its on a small boat and I don't need a lot. As battery tech and motors advance, I'm sure there will be some great competition in the market.

The one thing no one addresses is how are marinas going to support electric charging? many of them are small family run businesses that would not have the budget to drop money into charging equipment. it makes sense for the bigger marinas along the coastline, but inner waterways and freshwater lakes maybe not yet.

You can buy the motor from ePropulsion and attaching aftermarket battery to it. I'm sure he propulsion doesn't want you to do that so I guarantee in the future they will make it so the battery is not attached via cable that way you can't add your own battery

Great video. I love my ol 1978 johnson stinger 75hp, and the smell of 2 stroke. The sound, smell, and vibrations, tells me I'm having fun. Its a phycological thing. That being said, rhis is the way of the future. Imagine how powerful the outboards are, and how small the batteries get along with greatly increased tunning time. Very exciting indeed. Someone needs to show this video to trump. Have you heard him ranting about being electrocuted or being eaten by a shark because the boat sinks from the weight of the battery? What a psychopath.

The reason Mercury makes proprietary batteries is because that's where their money is. For them to make that battery cost them nothing but they can charge you as if it was a Chevy engine in there. You have DeWalt Ryobi all those companies make money on batteries they don't as much money on the drills and leaf blowers. Everything is about the battery. Plus it locks you in to their ecosystem where you can only get the batteries from them when they go bad which they will because again society today is not like it was back in the days where things lasted forever now things are made to break and not last as long so you buy new ones. Here's everybody's opportunity to blackball mercury and set precedent for the other companies to not do that

@the_wanderful_lifelol and the batteries in those cars last for minutes and then it's a couple hour charge, and it's pretty funny how my comments get deleted when I state the obvious... To power a 200hp motor for a hour at 200hp you roughly need a 150kw battery, that's very heavy and it will only power a 200 for 1 hour... Battery tech is not ready for high speed plaining boats, not even close. Highest capacity 18650 is still around 3.5ah as it was 10+ years ago.

@the_wanderful_life whats the point of getting a 200hp ob on a boat like that if you are not going plaining speeds? When I'm out boating I don't always run full throttle but if a storm is coming I can pin it full throttle and not have to worry about using up my entire gas tank in under a hour...

Ummmm dude youve said some dumb things but there is a direct comparison of hp to kw. In fact, it can be simply calculated. I think what you were looking for is the area under the torque curve is much larger on the electric motors. As for those big electric motors. Just imagine the size of the battery needed to run it. Boats are alreadyba fire hazard in a marina. Cant imagine any place allowing the storage of 400 lbs of LiPoFe4.

@@TBNationOutdoors ill humore the ridiculous statement for dialogue's sake. Lets start with chemistry. Gasoline will burn and is very volatile. A spark could cause a distaster. But a simple fuel fire can be extinguished easily and contained quick. But a battery? ONE SINGLE CELL has a thermal runaway and it can start a fire that is impossible to put out. For some perspective a car fire onlt needs 300 or so gallons as opposed to an EV car which needs 30 to 40 thousand gallons. Now for a battery to have the same range as a a 3 gallon gas tank on a modern 9.9 you would need 2800 18650 cells. Do some math and get that weight and price. If you have any corrosion, bms issues, charging issues, physical issues, etc. You have a disaster that is not containable. Anyone who thinks batteries have any business in recreational marine vehicles is willfullg ignorant or is trying to make money off stupid people.
