@kirbylee57 What was the flooring? Some links you know about?

how much do the solar panels help assuming a sunny day ..you talked about recharging at night with the on shore power...how long would the batterie charge last with out the solar panels ..can the solar panels recharge the battiers in one day
-
solar power is much cheaper if you can build and wire your own systems if you are a good electrician these systems are reasonable to build but i would not recomend for someone with no experience

wow a boat with a solar panel ,electric motor and some batteries! who would have thought that was possible! you'd think this was invented yesterday! LMFAO!! rubes!

Hydrogen is the answer...the only answer. Everything can make hydrogen...solar, wind, nuclear, diesel, gas etc...anything that can make electricity can make hydrogen gas. All you need to make Hydrogen is water and electricity. Stick a 12 volt battery charger cables on two stainless steel plates 1/4 inch apart in distilled water with baking soda. Burning hydrogen gives the extreme horsepower needed for recreational vehicles and watercraft. Someone is STUCK ON STUPID.

The decking used on the floor must be very expensive or a downside of some sort. If not this man just changed the way pontoon builders have built floors for decades. No need to over sell your boat though. Your plastic or what ever floor does not provide more traction than wood, but im sure will last longer . Cost more than plywood? I would pay more, maybe double.

Hi Doc! Is this guy still in business? I would like to get in touch with him regarding an event that would highlight his products (check out my channel/website). I look forward to your reply - oh, thanks for posting this! MRI

@DrBongWater So, fuel cell energy and solar energy are the same thing; am I right or not?
1) Would a fuel cell boat be a good choice for all people, or not?
2) If cars and buses be hybrids, why can't boats and ships be hybrids as well?

@dafranx Hydrogen made from the sun to feed the hydrogen cell that makes electricity OR sun directly to the lead acid battery? It's all the same thing.

I'm going to build an on-board hydrogen generator to supplement my gas powered vehicles. Fuel savings 20 to 1000% improvement. Imagine a back-up system for windless and cloudy days.

You should incorporate a wind generator to charge the batteries when the sun is not available.
