Ah, but even in that price range, making one of those boats into a hybrid still drives the price up significantly compared to a conventional boat that's otherwise similar. That's where I'm going with the cost thing. It's not an issue of absolute cost so much as an issue of cost compared to other propulsion and electrical options.
