Wow, thank you for putting together a complete informational video all about electric boats! Not only was it super helpful to understand a good overview on the topic but it was entertaining and fun to watch.

Great explanatory video, Adrian! It was quite the shock (getit? 😂) to see the shift to electric at Boot Düsseldorf, and it's great to know that Nautical Ventures is pushing for this in the US. Looking forward to a SUPER-CHARGED Yacth Bros 2023 Video lineup! In regards to the video, you know I love electric so.. Hopefully in the future I'd be able to get one of the entry-level recreational ones :)

😂😂 I didn’t realize how many puns there were until I was editing 😅 We’re excited for electric too! It’s going to allow more people to explore the water for sure.

Very well done. I would like to add: 1. Buying an older boat and refit the boat according to the purpose (currently cheaper TCO) 2. Batteries will in price every year between 15 to 30%. However waiting doesn’t make sense. 3. Conversion to electric with a small generator on board as range extender However, the decision has to fit the personal needs. We have two electric cars and charge from the sun. This is another viable option for boats bigger surface. In the future the market will explode and H2 will enter the market as well. Slower but steady.

I’m sold , Electric hybrid yacht is my choice. And I love all the E toys , Im selling my block of land overlooking the ocean and taking the plunge.

Great Scott! Let us know how it goes!

Cool video. I think the boating industry is ripe for a tesla level of disruption that very few boating companies are ready for. While it's great that there is a charging infrastructure already with most marinas. A good amount of boats have the real estate to take advantage of renewable energy sources and storage solutions, especially yachts and liveaboards. Between solar panels, wind turbines, wave harvesters etc boats should never run low on power. Also, boats don't need to rely on the most expensive lithium ion battery packs when they can use Lithium Iron Phosphate packs, a combo of the two, or many of the other emerging options.

What a great comment! We couldn’t agree with you more. It would definitely be interesting to see how those technologies find its way into the marine industry.

Great content guys!!!

[@yachtbros]

Thanks mate!

[@hervejb]

I learned so much from this video! Thanks guys!!!

[@yachtbros]

Thank you for the feedback, Herve! We're glad it was useful.

[@yachtbros]

Getting back in it slowly!

[@curtalden2223]

MORE VIDEOS of AXOPAR PLEASE❤

[@marinelifestyle__500]

What do you guys think of Saxdor? Love your content guys keep up!!

[@yachtbros]

We’ve personally never been on them but they look very similar to the Axopars. Thanks for the support!

[@mac-doien9298]

Elon.. we need Angel investors for my new "Keel-stub/ batteries" Perhaps a full keel boat could house the heavier components of a Tesla wall backup battery?

[@yachtbros]

When you say full-keel are you referring to a sailboat? Doubt those would require that much battery power with existing solar solutions.

[@curtalden2223]

what happened to you guys. waiting for more Axopar and Barbus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!o

[@yachtbros]

Hi Curt! Sorry we’ve been MIA this year. A lot of work changes but trying to reactivate the channel very soon!
