Abstract

The Promoting Electric Propulsion (PEP) For Small Craft event is a competition held every year by the American Society of Naval Engineers (ASNE) and the United States Coast Guard (USCG), and this coming year’s event is being held in Virginia Beach. It is aimed at inspiring students from universities all over the country and allowing them to design innovative fully electrically propelled boats, present their designs and builds, and race them against each other to show off their finished projects. Using fully electric propulsion systems for marine use can be challenging, but if done right they can provide a clean, efficient, and quiet power system for several types of marine vessels. Despite hurdles and setbacks that we have faced during our build, we have managed to create a solid design that has led to a vessel that we think can compete and hold its own on race day.
