My New Yacht Has One Last Problem

Before I officially take possession of my new yacht, we head out for some of the final sea trials to track down a strange noise coming from the electric drive system.

The issue seems to be somewhere around the Python drive, CV joint, electric motor, and prop shaft. We try several different adjustments and manage to reduce the noise quite a bit, but we still can’t quite get it completely solved.

After the sea trial, I also give a full rundown of the electric drive system, including the motor setup, drive batteries, house battery bank, and the components that make this electric catamaran work.

This yacht is almost ready, but as with any new boat, there are still a few gremlins to track down before I can officially call her mine.
