Reply To: Electric outboards

I am very tempted. Not only is electric much more environmentally friendly than petrol but also much safer. The new battery I am told is a considerable improvement over the original one. There is the question of durability (electrics in a salty environment) and the cost. I think a new battery is £650! That said all that RW has said makes me believe the day of our four stroke Suzuki are numbered. We now have an agent in Chichester Marina. The temptation may outweigh the expense. Any offers for my Suzuki…..
