Abstract: An assembly for a marine vessel includes a housing forming a watertight enclosure. A battery pack is sealed within the watertight enclosure. An onboard charger is sealed within the watertight enclosure and is electrically connected to the battery pack. A power converter is sealed within the watertight enclosure and is electrically connected to the battery pack. The housing is configured to be installed on the marine vessel. The battery pack is configured to provide power to an electric motor powering a marine propulsion device of the marine vessel.
