Please note that the PICTURE UPLOAD function is not working. The iBoats Forum Moderators are working with the system administration folks at the parent company to get the issue resolved. This happened about a year ago and here we are again. In the meantime you can post photos as links to a picture hosting site of your choice. We are sorry about the inconvenience and will advise when the issue is resolved. Thank you for your patience.
The stator does seem to be different than the ones in my first links. But again, no rectifier and supporting wiring. Also as said several times, manual and electric start use different stators. So I think you're stuck with using a battery charger unless you want to spend the money to convert to a charging system.
