Lagoon 410 Electric Propulsion Benefits expained Waypoint






his series of videos were an interview with a Lagoon 41 Owner Bruce Wilson. The original owner of Waypoint in 2003 was Dennis English and after 5 years in Charter in the BVI the systems and Catamaran were in excellent condition. Bruce Wilson then purchased in 2008 and sailed from BVI to New Orleans and has replaced the batteries, added a 144v DC Inverter for the house loads, and Waypoint is as good as new and preparing to take an ocean crossing in the pacific. You see electric propulsion's end of life engine like most electric motors have a 200000 hours or more of runtime..and regeneration is only one positive point for choosing electric.
