Apology accepted.. and let's move on to better ports.. Actually you were not all that disagreeable,, just cantankerous. which is disagreeable with class.. hahah

Found a couple more beauties,, same problem .. the engine.. Crazy.. Driving myself nuts looking at these boats. Question: what is the smallest diesel inboard sold today? Might be a kinda solution, underpower the boat. Heck, does not take much to get to the dock, or mooring. On my old Bristol the AT4 never put out more than about 12hp, at least that is what one so called expert told me.. and the engine is rated at 30hp I think. Mostly, I used the engine is very low rpm, idle speed. With a diesel, low rpm, a smaller hp will produce more push, right?

Gotta find that one in a million..
