; Efficiency: While there are losses in the charge / discharge cycle and in the conversion of electricity to motive power, Rutter points out that most electric boats need only about 1. 5 kW or 2 hp to cruise at 5 mph, a common maximum river speed and that a 30 hp petrol or diesel engine producing only 2 hp is considerably more inefficient.
