- Any intel about hybrid (diesel/electric) IPS possibility? When I say electric, I mean serious, like 200 hp electric motor coupled with IPS 600s... not 7 hp for 5 knots in the marina (it sounds like a joke, but hopefully a good start).

Thanks..

Hi,

You are going to need some substantial power and mass to produce the electricity for your 200 hp motor- more weight than an engine on it's own so there would not be any real advantage there
