BELLE’s new owner looks to be doing a fine job installing an electric drive system. Here’s a photo showing the battery tucked under the foredeck, where it balances weight aft, and the main circuit breaker. Wiring leads aft under the side deck to a plug for the trolling motor, which is rated at 46lb thrust. He reports it moves her along well. I’m hoping he sends along some more photos of her underway with the motor, and I’ll post them on a new page here at the website. But many thanks to him for this snapshot.
