I gotta tell this, I had a 1969 26' excaliber, there was only 4 on the West Coast, 2 ( mine & Terry's ) where in Dana Point, 1 in Newport Beach and the forth in Northern Ca; One of the 2 ( either the Newport boat or the N.Ca. boat ) sailed down the coast, thru PC, up to Florida, then eventually to the Med.

So, it is doable, and the biggest ( in size ) outboard you could put in one of these was a long shaft 5 or 6hp 4s


And welcome, I too missed that was your first post

Cut off from the land that bore us, betrayed by the land we find, where the brightest have gone before us and the dullest remain behind, .......but stand to your glasses, steady,.......tis all we have left to prize, raise a cup to the dead already, hurrah for the next that dies
