New Electric Cruiser | Fully Charged

When we visited New Electric in Amsterdam, we didn't expect to cruise around the canals in a luxury electric water cruiser.
An amazing company doing amazing things with motors and batteries. I expect we'll see a lot more of them.

Astounding beautiful example of a marine limo. Utilitarian efficiency of a tug. Acrid smell of rubber from a Jag burn-out. A CJ. A 240. Anything you can think of conversion. Daily driver to pushers and pullers earning their keep. All electric by New Electric in gorgeous Amsterdam. One of the best _fully charged_ segments ever!

Electrification is allowing all these talented engineers and entrepreneurs to flourish, it’s so pleasing to see and this guy is exceptionally articulate and obviously knowledgable

[@matchrocket1702]

What a classic beauty that boat is. I see no violation to its heritage by putting an electric motor in it. It only gives it a new vitality and brings it into the new age. Well done New Electric.

[@gmy33]

[@MrRuff-cc3lg]

That boat made me smile. The passion the people at New Electric have is evident! Great video!

[@thomasjessen5125]

Happy to see such a passion for the electric mobility movement and for an entrepreneur doing what he loves

[@eggshapedfred1]

Brilliant video! I could have watched this all day and not got bored. Anne's enthusiasm for what he does in infectious - an electric version of Guy Martin :) As a design engineer working for a big corporate company, where things only get done if there's enough profit, knowing there's guys like this who are doing things mainly for the satisfaction of just making stuff work, it brings a smile to my face! I'm inspired. I'm off to my garage now to see what I can knock together!!!

[@TheSiebrowse]

Best episode yet! Great work everyone. New Electric is the 'cottage industry' basis of garages of the future. Great to see. Anne is such a good communicator and presenter... maybe he could try an episode or two WITH Jonny & Robert. Who knows.

I have a CJ5 here in Florida and no one to do the conversion within a 200 Mile Radius. I've been looking for this for a few years now. It'll happen. Glad you guys manage to get the legal aspects done in Holland. Truly, and sincerely "Gefeliciteerd" that takes patience. Well done. Keep doing what you're doing. We need more engineers like this. Thanks for sharing on Fully Charged. Well done boys.

Best episode of the year! I really like the electric boat episodes - great improvement for lake and river ecosystem by not dumping all sorts of crap in the water and less noise.

[@achenarmyst2156]

hiddengrousefarm You are right. Unfortunately it‘s also propeller noise that is disturbing marine life. Change is not enough. We also have to reduce. 😉

This is actually fucking incredible

[@larryducie6719]

9600GTMAN - best not turn on your washing machine or dishwasher then :-)

[@spooks196]

@9600GTMAN you do know modern cruise liners use electric thrusters for steering? Or that submarines have been diesel electric since inception... your point is beyond invalid.

[@vink6163]

Making a comment about electricity and water not going together on a video like this, is like watching someone safely pack away a pair of scissors in a solid metal box and then commenting "you shouldn't run with scissors, it's not safe"

[@gewdvibes]

9600GTMAN you clearly know nothing about the safety of electric motors lol. These guys can’t just throw electric motors into boats and call it a day they have to pass strict safety tests and be extremely safe in many conditions including damage. How come Tesla’s don’t explode when submerged? Or right because they’re not idiots the batteries and electric motors are completely safe in water

[@zbudda]

@Gewdvibes ~ The electric canal Tug Boat is a winner, if it's tech passes or the marine tests, and can do the job. Damen the ship manufacturer will be watching these guys, they have a next gen hybrid electric diesel tugboats to handle the massive ships in harbour and coastal. They eventually are moving away from the diesel engines to the next gen Gas (LNG) engines, and have specialist 100 ft long LNG tanker pump station boats, that comes to the hybrid gas electric tugboats to fuel them up. Damen found that their diesel powered tugboats when on duty, run their engines constantly at idle between heavy pulling jobs and just standing on station to a non moving ship. That diesel engine idle on standby, accounts for almost 70% of the tugboats fuel costs.

[@VeryUsMumblings]

This episode was really excellent! It looks and sounds the quality of a hollywood movie. The scenery and visuals are excellent and the conversation and display of technology and performance is really fascinating. You guys are getting really good at what you're doing!

Good to see Anne and New electric are still building great boats and vehicles. I used to watch Anne do a segment on EVTV years ago when he was just starting out in a tiny garage with clips and videos of his latest projects and latest EV parts for Europe. Really miss seeing those boat builds. Great show fantastic producing and information shared. 10/10 Fully charged! :-)

[@KevinSharpe]

Yeh, that does seem a long time ago... did you ever get to the EVTV car convention? That was a lot of fun :-)

[@jbsmith1]

@@jbsmith1 that was John Metric with Assault & Battery..an electric miata (mx5). I remember it had so much torque, they could not strap it down tight enough.. wheels kept chirping :) :)

Hi New Electric! Yes that's the one, what a machine. I've been subscribed to your channel since it started and would love to see more updates on your projects if you have time.:-) Did Johnny tell you about his little electric drag car, its very impressive on 1/4 mile!;-)

[@turbokadett]

Another great episode; I'm excited at the prospect of affordable off-the-shelf conversion kits for ICE vehicles, so many current and classics that would benefit from electric drive.

[@pinkelephants1421]

The greater aspect of this idea is the 3 R's. Reduce, Reuse, Recycle. Responsible embodied energy & resource management of what we already have. Why make a new product when reimagining the old one not only will do but will be better?

[@nc3826]

the show should had a warning "don't try this at home".... so good luck trying it...

[@turbokadett]

@@nc3826 I've carried out a number of engine conversions and my day job is a vehicle project engineer so an electric conversion is firmly within my capabilities. The cost of motors, batteries and ancillaries in the UK however is my limiting factor! @Charles-A Rovira I like your style 👍

[@xxwookey]

@@nc3826 It's not that hard to do conversions if you are handy. Some electrical and mechanical clue is needed, but it's really not rocket-science. It's much simpler than tweaking engines. As the parts get more standard it's getting easier. It's also easier in the UK than much of the rest of Europe, because we have quite relaxed rules on modified vehicles.

[@nc3826]

In the UK the limiting factor is, talk is free but beer cost money... So I looking forward to your posts mates after accepting the "challenge" Im just not holding my breath... And as a fellow engineer the most important thing to know, is to know what you don't know. BTW, Is a project engineer even real engineer? Or is it like the title locomotive engineer or sanitary engineer just a load of crap? 😂

excellent interview, this fellow is in command of the tech and eloquent explaining the task...

[@jimwilliams1536]

A small peek into the garages of the future there. Bringing the cost down of conversion to electric may be the real key to making this all work. I had a BMW 318i touring, lovely cruiser, named it The Silver Land Shark. It died on the motorway. The engine flew apart, blew a hole in the block and bits of cylinder fell out like little crushed metal butterflies.. I keep a piece of one it's cylinders on my bookshelf out of respect. It would still live today if i could have just pulled the engine out and had it converted. Something to think about.

[@NomadicPhoton]

future project, convert 54' sailboat to electric power. That would be amazing, cover most of the deck with solar, flexible panels could be stitched into the sails. Well, off to work to pay for all this.

[@___Chris___]

@@NomadicPhoton It's always nice to hear when people are excited about solar-electric boats. But, as I see it, almost all solar-electric boats that qualify for more than toys are multihulls for good reasons: improved efficiency with narrow hulls and no keel ballast, plus lots of added surface area for solar panels; efficiency rather than top speed is key for solar-electric boats; this also includes superiority of pure displacement hulls (like double-ender canoes, with a fine bow entry and pointy stern) over the typical semi-displacement hulls with lots of rocker and a semi-submerged transom (like seen in most sailing yachts); slender hulls (high length/displacment ratio) can still easily go beyond the theoretical hull speed; stiching solar panels into sails also doesn't really work, e.g. because you can't reef them when the wind is too strong, so why not go 100% solar and forget about the sails? There are more advantages: less maintenance/repair (due to all the wear and tear that usually goes into mast/sails/rigging), increased stability (lower center of gravity and center of effort), smoother ride (no fluctuating forces associated with wind gusts), solar panels on the deck won't be in the shadow of the sails (remember: solar cells are internally wired in series, i.e. covering only a fraction of a panel in the shadow will make the voltage output drop to almost zero) and solar-electric also has less issues with going upwind; a low-profile (=low windage) trimaran design with all accomodations in the central hull and a large unobstructed deck surface covered with solar panels probably makes the most sense for solar-electric boats; only problem is: this needs to be built from scratch; converting a sailing boat into a solar boat gives away much of the theoretical potential

[@richardlangley90]

Absolutely awesome filming, audio and content in this episode...the quality of your productions are second to none these days.
