Hi Randy,

I re-powered last year with a Beta 50.  What a difference. You are going to love that engine.

Aloha Dan,

Thanks for the intel.  My sump pump stopped working so, after 37 years of service I think it might be best to replace it.  While I am on the shower subject, is there an off the shelf replacement for the euro-shower head… I have the original factory model and it is also falling apart.  Thank you everyone for your input. It is much appreciated. 

Also: my boat is #82 and it is a sloop rig. Circa 1980

Thanks Evan, I’ll give that a look.  Don’t use the shower at port but it is real nice for cruising.  Going through this boat, one area at a time.

Nice!  I just went through the shock of a repower and will be looking for advise moving down the project list.

Me too.  It has been quite a while between emails from the forum.  I thought I’d been banished 🙂

Thanks Greg,

Looking at the Beta 50 and just got a fairly reasonable bid.

The 424 is a displacement hull.  Not sure what the hull speed is but I would think that no matter how much engine you put in her she'll only plow along so fast.

Thanks John,

I am letting 3 shops with three different engine types bid,  Obviously do not want to overpower or over spend.  The first quote for a Volvo 75 HP came in at 35K.  Crazy!

Will share intel as it arrives.

Best,

Bill

Thanks for the info Rob.  Did you have to do any major modifications to your existing transmission to install the Yanmar 80 HP?  I was looking at a Volvo 75HP which is a 55 with a turbo but it was way more pricey.  Still waiting for the 3 bids to come in and will share the quotes with all who are interested.
