so we’re lucky to be joined with Alan bro who’s the president of impact plein
bro who’s the president of impact plein
bro who’s the president of impact plein air thank you very much for being here
air thank you very much for being here
air thank you very much for being here so explain you a little bit about your
so explain you a little bit about your
so explain you a little bit about your company what exactly do you do the
company what exactly do you do the
company what exactly do you do the company impact plein air we we sell

company impact plein air we we sell electric boat it’s a motor that creates
electric boat it’s a motor that creates
electric boat it’s a motor that creates zero pollution and basically with the
zero pollution and basically with the
zero pollution and basically with the electric motor you have a very good
electric motor you have a very good
electric motor you have a very good reliability it starts all the time where
reliability it starts all the time where
reliability it starts all the time where a gas motor you have to turn turn on the
a gas motor you have to turn turn on the
a gas motor you have to turn turn on the engine crank the engine electric it goes
engine crank the engine electric it goes
engine crank the engine electric it goes right away and I mean I’m assuming you
right away and I mean I’m assuming you
right away and I mean I’m assuming you have to recharge the electric battery at
have to recharge the electric battery at
have to recharge the electric battery at some point how do you how to exactly
some point how do you how to exactly
some point how do you how to exactly does that work well you have you have
does that work well you have you have
does that work well you have you have batteries and in one models you have two
batteries and in one models you have two
batteries and in one models you have two batteries the other you have four
batteries the other you have four
batteries the other you have four batteries they are six volts batteries
batteries they are six volts batteries
batteries they are six volts batteries industrial batteries no memory so you
industrial batteries no memory so you
industrial batteries no memory so you can discharge it to the end and then
can discharge it to the end and then
can discharge it to the end and then recharge it and there’s no memory the
recharge it and there’s no memory the
recharge it and there’s no memory the with these batteries you have an
with these batteries you have an
with these batteries you have an autonomy of anywhere between 10 to 20
autonomy of anywhere between 10 to 20
autonomy of anywhere between 10 to 20 hours so it’s a lot of hours you know
hours so it’s a lot of hours you know
hours so it’s a lot of hours you know compared to other boats are you a
compared to other boats are you a
compared to other boats are you a pioneer in this field or hazard and
pioneer in this field or hazard and
pioneer in this field or hazard and other electric power boat it’s funny you
other electric power boat it’s funny you
other electric power boat it’s funny you ask because the electric boats have been
ask because the electric boats have been
ask because the electric boats have been around before the gas motor boat it
around before the gas motor boat it
around before the gas motor boat it started in 1892 with the company name
started in 1892 with the company name
started in 1892 with the company name alco electric lunch company they’re
alco electric lunch company they’re
alco electric lunch company they’re still around nowadays they’ve been
still around nowadays they’ve been
still around nowadays they’ve been producing electric boats for more than a
producing electric boats for more than a
producing electric boats for more than a hundred years but once the the gas motor
hundred years but once the the gas motor
hundred years but once the the gas motor started and that is at the beginning of
started and that is at the beginning of
started and that is at the beginning of the 90s now the market for the electric
the 90s now the market for the electric
the 90s now the market for the electric boat went down
boat went down
boat went down and it stayed down for many many years
and it stayed down for many many years
and it stayed down for many many years but now for the last say the last five
but now for the last say the last five
but now for the last say the last five to ten years it’s becoming more popular
to ten years it’s becoming more popular
to ten years it’s becoming more popular because of you know the quietness that
because of you know the quietness that
because of you know the quietness that you you can experience in these boats I
you you can experience in these boats I
you you can experience in these boats I guess I would be the main advantage
guess I would be the main advantage
guess I would be the main advantage right is it is a quietness compared to
right is it is a quietness compared to
right is it is a quietness compared to something that’s that’s motorized got
something that’s that’s motorized got
something that’s that’s motorized got powerful yeah it’s one of the main
powerful yeah it’s one of the main
powerful yeah it’s one of the main advantages it’s quiet so you can talk as
advantages it’s quiet so you can talk as
advantages it’s quiet so you can talk as we talk right now it makes no pollution
we talk right now it makes no pollution
we talk right now it makes no pollution and it costs nothing in dance I notice
and it costs nothing in dance I notice
and it costs nothing in dance I notice you have solar panels on the canopy of
you have solar panels on the canopy of
you have solar panels on the canopy of this boat it’s only a little bit how
this boat it’s only a little bit how
this boat it’s only a little bit how that works okay this is a new option we
that works okay this is a new option we
that works okay this is a new option we started last summer it’s the solar
started last summer it’s the solar
started last summer it’s the solar energy option so the idea is to have a
energy option so the idea is to have a
energy option so the idea is to have a system that recharges the battery
system that recharges the battery
system that recharges the battery permanently so that makes a boat a fully
permanently so that makes a boat a fully
permanently so that makes a boat a fully autonomous well thank you again my
autonomous well thank you again my
autonomous well thank you again my pleasure
