Hi all,
I am in the process of deciding what direction to take to repower my 1968 Cal 34. The original atomic4 is pretty much done and I need to figure out what comes next.
I would love to hear what other have done and possibly the costs surrounding the project. She is a very solid boat and worth the effort to keep her sailing although I start to wonder where the line should be for putting big dollars into such an old boat.
Has anyone went with an outboard on a Cal 34? Pulling the A4 and using that space for another water tank sounds somewhat tempting. Since I know my sailing won't take me further than the St. Johns river, the Keys and possibly the Bahamas, I am thinkning a 15hp kicker could get me where I needed to go pretty easily.
Thanks for your comments, this has been long in coming.
