Show notes
In this episode, Mathew and Justin discuss the recent Palma International Boat Show, with a particular focus on electric marine technology. Mathew highlights three exciting developments from the show, including a sustainable and eco-friendly approach from local boat builder Nauta Morgau, Mercury Marine's electric outboard motor, and Spanish boat builder LASAI's solar electric boat. The hosts also discuss the recent move from RS Sailboats into electric boats, specifically RIBs, tenders, and workboats. Finally, they talk about a new loop-based propeller design that reduces noise by 20 decibels and increases efficiency by up to 30%, potentially reducing harm to marine life.
