But he doesn't use it like the time/distances at the villages.

He estimates it will add 40-50% more run time/distance.

So he and I are going to run it hard in the next few months and test it.

He motored around LI in a solar powered boat about 250 miles, he loves to experiment.

So my new build will be the guinea pig in about a month.


time will tell.
That is pretty interesting. Is it one of the reasons you are interested in moving to The Villages? Sounds like a good place to market such an invention.
