Learning from your comments, updating Fogstar Electric Motor Battery plans #BoatRefit #ElectricYacht

145 Views· 10/12/25

Thanks for all the comments on our previous video asking for help deciding how we can fit our four huge 24V 285AH LiFePO4 batteries from Fogstar (for our electric motor). Especially the comment from @noldushumlesnurr6169 made us realise that we could place one battery under the step. The batteries are Drift PRO 24V 280Ah LiFePO4 Leisure Battery (Gen2) see https://www.fogstar-drift.co.uk/collections/drift-pro-gen2/products/drift-pro-24v-280ah-gen2?ref=sustainablesailing NB we are Fogstar Ambassadors. We are now living aboard our Rival 38 Centre Cockpit full-time while finishing a refit so we can launch ASAP. We have a frequently updated blog at https://sustainablesailing.net with membership options and a weekly newsletter at £2 per month for Early Bird Supporters. Our free Sustainable Sailing book is at: https://sustainablesailing.codeberg.page/ Or visit our shop at https://sustainablesailing.teemill.com/ for great hoodies, t-shirts and bags. When we bought Vida in August 2019 she was in a very tired and damp condition with all original equipment and fittings (much of it not working). We have removed all the gas, diesel and paraffin equipment, and are installing all-electric (motor, cooking etc).
