Well, that's fucking embarrassing

The Ika Rere, a brand new vessel and the first electric powered ferry in the southern hemisphere just had to be rescued after running out of battery in the harbor, leaving the vessel stranded without any power;

  1. Tied up to the pier? Check!
    Black water connection? Check!
    Potable water connection? Check!
    Shore Power? Check?

    I guess the shore power connections did NOT include power for charging the damn batteries. Anybody want to bet the battery power pack was just dropped in instead of being actually designed in???

  4. Nope, with this here electric there is absolutly no need for a fossil fuel backup system. They are lucky there wasn't a big wind or hard telling what damage that piece of shit would have caused.

    2. Poor Kiwis, Wirecutter. If it isn’t a sheep, they don’t quite get it. Having to hook up that 3-phase charger overnight is just too complex.

    It's spelled fairy here in Ca.
