Humble beginnings...
Cinderella is an Ericson 35-2 that has a mystical past as a badass racing boat. This very boat was destined for nonstop adventure with this crew.
We ditched the diesel and converted her to electric drive. Pajo designed an all new electric drive system called the Manta Drive which expanded the cabin area and most importantly, reduce our carbon footprint. See how we converted Cinderella to 100% renewable energy!
Electric and never going back...
It's been four years and many miles since Cindy 'went electric.' We love our electric drive. We love the extra space in the cabin, the lack of diesel fumes, the lack of noise, and the lack of maintenance. We love that the system is scalable. And we love that battery technology continues to become more affordable.
Sailing Cinderella is a sandbox where we will continue to test and promote sustainable cruising. Our goal is to help other boaters move toward renewable energy systems and decrease our impact on the planet.
