Volga prosjekt Norway
Posted: Fri Apr 25, 2025 3:01 pm
Hi,
I have a Volga that I bought from Croatia almost two years ago, which I’m currently restoring. I don’t know the exact age of the boat since all the factory plates are missing, but I’ve concluded that it must be from sometime in the 1960s. After dismantling most of the boat, I discovered that the deck was in such poor condition that it had to be replaced. It’s been a lot of work to remove the old one and build a new one, and I’m now about halfway through that process.
The plan is to convert the boat to electric drive, using an 80 kW motor from a Nissan Leaf, which is roughly equivalent to 110 horsepower.
