Super interesting! I also almost went crazy doing calculations when thinking about changing my diesel to an electric propulsion unit. Probably not, that hybrid thing is also what I ended up with. Anyways, there's one marine fuel company here now that makes really good bio diesel out of food industry waste oils. My engine seems to love that stuff.

Thanks Brian, You answered the questions very well. The wind turbine does produce a fair amount of power and at night as well... Very good point. Your system seems very balanced and your answer on the induction range helped me a ton. Thank you for all of the great insight and testing! Happy Daze!

Solid video team Delos. Brian you need to check out xkcd.com or Randall Monroe's "what-if" books. Love the deep dive videos just to watch Brian's nerd fall out. Giving the rest of us Engi-nerds still in our natural habitats hope. He has the perfect nerd - camouflage, a sailboat in the tropics with a hot swedish wife and a tan. All the loves Brian and gang.

As long as we put enough emphasis on I then everyone will flow with the current.

Thanks Breeyan, love these really technical nerds videos! So much info to soak up... Looking for my next boat this has been one of those questions that keeps coming up .. power vs sails vs electric/hybrid.... I'm afraid I'm too old school and want clean but afraid to let go of that diesel back up redundancies.
