SPONSORS OF THE IMPOSSIBLE JOURNEY (Mosselbay-Cape Town with an electrical motor)

BASE TRAVEL: The starting-point for highly efficient outboards

The motors in the BaseTravel range are the stationary
companions to the Travel models. They have the same excellent
efficiency in the drive train but are connected just like conventional
electrical drives via cable connections to standard lead
batteries. Instead of a foldable shaft, they are equipped with a
fixed shaft. As no lithium batteries are integrated into the Base-
Travel models, they are considerably less expensive than the
Travel motors. Additionally, they are also suitable for applications
within the performance range of the Travel line, where higher
battery capacity is required.
The BaseTravel 401 model works with a voltage of 12 V,
whereas the BaseTravel 801 model is operated at 24 V. A cable
connection for standard lead batteries with integrated fuse is
contained within the scope of delivery. Similar to the battery of
the Travel model, the removable cable adapter serves as main
switch of the BaseTravel model. A bridging cable is also
delivered for serial connection of two lead batteries to each
other (for BaseTravel 801).
