Meanwhile in Amsterdam: our Electric Canal Boat taking shape

Nerds rule! .... an irrational yet cool project
Less = more.  A birds-eye view of the 5kW Lynch motor (Agni) powering the 80 year old 'bakdekker'.  Notice the rivets; this boat was made before they knew what welding was.
Vic spent day's designing the electric propulsion.  A glass plate will cover the engine room so that people can see the beauty of simplicity.
