Boat Motor

Hello All,

This is my first post.

I am interested in the possibility of applying a solenoid motor for use in an electric boat.

A horizontally opposed scotch yoke design appeals to me.

Having it push and pull on every stroke should make it equivalent to an 8 cylinder. (2 coils on each piston)

Peter, do you think 10 to 20 HP could be achieved?

Carl
