Factory Fridays: Twin Vee PowerCats and ⚡ Electric Catamarans - EP. 8

Join boats.com and host Marilyn DeMartini for a tour of Twin Vee PowerCat manufacturing facility in Fort Pierce, Florida in this episode of Factory Fridays. Twin Vee has been designing and building American-made catamaran boats for over 26 years, crafting vessels that are known for their safe, reliable twin-hull design that make for reliable, sturdy offshore fishing boats at an affordable price. The brand's 7.5 acre facility totals 80,000 square feet and the boat builder employs around 85 people. The fiberglass for Twin Vee boats is manufactured 100% in-house. The company has created an electric boat division named Twin Vee Electric that is now building electric powercats with the debut model being the 240 Electric center console powered by Twin Vee's proprietary propulsion system with lithium-ion powered electric outdrives.. In addition to building electric powercats, the company is designing and manufacturing their own electric propulsion systems which will be available to other builders for use on their boats through the "Electra Power Sports" name, including their new Electra 215HP electric outboard motor. The aim of Twin Vee Electra and Electra Power Sports is to promote 100% electric, clean on-water adventures and enable boaters experience the power of sustainable boating.

Thanks for making boats in the USA. 🇺🇸

[@jerryandkerri]

Fantastic company run by a dedicated team. Managed by a driven to succeed leader. Nice!!!

[@tonyacerra2329]

I wonder why you don’t use vacuum infusion. Also I was looking into the DX 24 which I like a lot, but I was also wondering why there is no wave break in the center bow. If anything, I think it loos cool.

[@teop7887]

Very interesting!

[@collinator68]

they sound like the Amazon of Boats

[@MR1977.]

The new all electric boat will be 57 feet long to accommodate the batteries, it has a range of 3 nautical miles and it will cost 17 million dollars.

Does anyone know what CAD program eric is using?

[@itsruf1]

As a mechanical engineer I operated 9 or more softwares. That said today I own a small sign shop however I love my (4) 24" monitors. Generally 2-3 are for the sign at hand and 1 is old John Wayne movies or Christian type videos or movies.oe e-mail screen or bill of materials screen yada yada. I cannot imagine one tiny screen and crummy chair. His "station" is unimpressive and a turn off. Heck, gamer kids run 2 or 3 screens particularly when an entry level Walmart monitor is petty cash and quality does just fine. Cad is like microsoft, every other update looks different i.e. url line/ toolbars available, grids, screens in screens. I also reccomrd a killer sound system i.e. Klipsch about $150. I feel sorry for the Cad guy.

[@areyouarobotz]

If it ain't broke don't fix it

[@dexterm7466]

Wow Jimbo, your a little salty

[@luisnaranjo4745]

This is great to see. Efficient, cost-effective, and quality control will yield the best results.

[@e.s.5529]

so in between playing Fortnite and World of Warships Legends on his computer Eric is designing all the boats for the company...in Florida? Hope he doesn't get the "DELTA" variant or else the whole damm company is going down the drain ...with no EPIRB. lol Jesus.

[@areyouarobotz]

Hopefully he was smart enough to get a vaccine shot

[@teop7887]

Incoherent comment of the year.
