Peter,

What are you going to replace your perkins with? It is nice to have a new power plant. I am hoping to have mine operational next week.

Hey Mike,
I'm going with a Yanmar 4JH4E and a MaxProp. It should fit into the existing engine compartment without any modifications.
Hope you're well.
Peter

Peter,

That setup should really be nice, That will be a big change from the perkins. I went with a 3 bladed sailorman prop 18"X15". With that Yanmar what size prop are they recommending?

Hope all is well with you as well

Mike

I believe you will need to add a significant number of lead ingots to the deep part of the bilge one you replace the Perkins with a Yanmar. Extra ballast will be required to keep the bobstay tang out of the water when you loose the extra weight.
