A solar panel maybe helpful here.

My guess is above $2K.

Might work great on a solo skiff - if I can figure out how to rig it up to steer it...

I'm not seeing runtime on the battery. In looking at all electric motor options there's always two downfalls for me is.

1. Runtime
2. Weight of the batteries

Edit: Runtime 1.1 hrs at full throttle. I'd need about 10 of their batteries to consider it.

If you can figure out how to power the solo skiff to last all day on an electric motor without hundreds of pounds of batteries, I'm buying one.
