  • Patent number: 6192821
    Abstract: A hydro-alternator for attachment to the outboard motor on a bass fishing boat. The hydro-alternator generates electrical power for charging of batteries on the boat. The alternator charges the batteries while the boat is being propelled by its large outboard motor. The alternator is designed to provide high power, high current, and low drag force. To achieve this, it has a compact design in order to project a small profile. It also turns at very high rotational speeds in order to achieve adequately high power and current output.
