What's the take on these electric propulsion systems?

I picked the Solomon rep's brain for a half hour or so at the Newport show. The pic above is their ST37 6HP motor, their smallest, but all the power a Triton would ever need. Draws 32 amps, roughly one cubic foot in size, weighs about 85lbs.
Personally, I'm a huge fan. I think that if I had the money, it's totally the way I'd be going, despite the fact that the Triton is just a tad too small to absorb the ballast of a true-cruising-boat-sized battery bank.
For daysailing purposes, though..... It really does seem ideal. SILENT, clean propulsion. Isn't that what sailboats are all about?
