This was over a month ago, but I still think it’s fitting as an electric vehicle. Reminder that it’s possible to power cargo ships using batteries and electric motors.

20-30ft sailboats are hardly what you think of as ocean going or “blue water” boats. Most people cross ocean on larger boats over 30ft.
sailboats are increasingly easy to electrify. Tho I have no data on how many people do it. There are huge benefits in going electric and the tech is becoming quite mature
That said most boats you will see out there owned by real humans (not charter companies) are 30+ years old with 30+ years old motor in them. Sailors rarely replace the motor unless they absolutely have to.
