repowering

[tgialdini]

I will be pulling my Atomic in a few weeks. The replacement is a very low hour 2GM20F. My boat is a 1974 MK11 I have owned for 8 years. In addition to the new diesel I have but in a Edson steering system and new Doyle sails. Im going to try a 12-12 2 blade prop with a 2.62
ratio. Looking for and info on engine bed mod and advise on prop.

I am so look forward to sailing this boat with new sails.

That Yanmar engine will spoil you rotten.

Until you mentioned it, I almost forgot I had one in our boat.

@Ralph, that is a wonderfully clean engine. Has all the signs of a well cared for machine.

Most definitely not !

It has to be spotlessly clean because that's where I hide my lunch. Bloody crew of mine would have it eaten in a heatbeat if I left it in the fridge .
