    Want to convert a Rockstar 48 from gas to electric

    I have seen one post on here where a man did it for a friend. Wondering what exactly it would take to do it. I am tired of trying to keep the motor running and starting it is just to difficult. Anyone have a parts list and instructions they can share. I currently have a Zelos 36 twin and a slew of 5000 3s batteries but I am assuming that these will be of no use as it looks as if the motor will be much much larger.

    Yeah you’ll need 10-12s for the task. I have a couple local fellas that did the King of Shaves and a Segad. Roughly same size boat. I can ask them exactly what they used but a Swordfish 240 or 300 and a Castle 2028 would be great. I think I did a Octura 455 up for him and it seemed to move out well.
