Boat is out of its mould
The boat is out of its mould, the bulkheads have been placed, the deck is glued down and yesterday we were busy finishing the spray rail. An important task to ensure that we cruise through the water as efficiently as possible.

A new motordriver
Can’t build a new boat without also upgrading the electronics. We’ve custom designed a brand new BLDC motordriver to be used in the boat. The motordriver is still in production, but we couldn’t resist to already publish some information on our website. Just like our previous designs all knowledge and designs will be completely open source ! Please visit the dedicated webpage Motordriver
Special thanks to Altium, Würth Elektronik and Eurocircuits for their generosity in realizing this project!
