Would it be possible to repower my 20ft v bottom fiberglass boat, weight about 1700 lbs with a single deep cycle battery and a dc electric motor useing an automobile altenator run off a pulley on the electric motor to keep the battery charged as the boat is being used?
What kind of speed and power could I expect from that sort of set up if it were possible?
Would I be able to have forward and reverse with throttle control thru the electric motor?
I understand I could use parts from a golf cart but would have to have a charger and recharge I think 6 batteries after each trip out.
Thanks!
