Liveaboard solar electric boat
I’m looking for advice and suggestions on getting a solar/electric catamaran.
I would like to find a boat without engines to put a Torqueedo hybrid system in with solar panels for living on the hook.

And if anyone has experience living on the hook with solar-How much energy needs to be produced per day. I would be in south Florida and Caribbean so would need a/c 24/7 most of the year plus the usual appliances and tv.

Ideal boat would be 40-46’ at 25,000-30,000#, with a beam of 20-28’. Also I’d prefer to use the outboard version of their electric 55kw motors.
