Anybody here have any experience of one of these? Considering one for a combination of charter and private family use.

This is really helpful dunedi. Thank you. I have received some independent confirmation of what I have been told by the manufacturer, but it makes sense to get some numbers and do the maths as well.
I know that the battery capacity is 160 kWh, and the boat has 2 x 25kw motors. I have asked from some other data so that I can do the calculations you suggest.
Great, look forward to hearing more.This is really helpful dunedi. Thank you. I have received some independent confirmation of what I have been told by the manufacturer, but it makes sense to get some numbers and do the maths as well.

along the same lines, keeping charge level constant, with the geny running its balls off, you'll be able to run the engine at say 4kn, doubt more as you'll be sucking from the batteries as well.Just to correct something I said earlier, they are 2 x 20kw motors (not 25kw), which possibly makes the 4 hours at full speed seem possible.
The diesel generator is a 10kVA unit which seems likely to provide sufficient output to drive the motors and other electrical functions as both a back up and range extender.
