We love receiving updates from our customers, here's a link to a 2023 story by Tim where they took a 20ft Whitehall Spirit to explore British Columbia.
'An Electric Journey to Knight Inlet'
by Tim O'Meara (Oct 2023)
The low clouds and fog of dawn had given way to sunny midday skies by the time we motored out through the sportfishing fleet tucked into Telegraph Cove, British Columbia. My old friend Craig and I were aboard my 20′ Whitehall propelled by an oddly squarish 3-hp electric motor, powered by two pairs of folding SunPower solar panels, which occupied most of the center of the boat.
We slipped quietly between the fishing boats with their enclosed pilothouses and stout aluminum hulls with 4′ of freeboard. People bustling about the docks watched as we silently motored by and must have thought the two of us, in our slender boat with a noiseless motor, were about to do something foolish. As we left the cove and entered the expanse of Johnstone Strait, I wondered if we were doing something foolish.....
Also here's a video from their more recent trip to Lake Nipigon in 2024 and we look forward to reading their next article about their adventures.
