Any thoughts on the plus and minus of Yanmar 27 vs the Westerbeke 27 for the 361?

Westerbeke

I also have the Westerbeke 27 on my 331. I had a Yanmar on my 281 before. The only disadvantage to the Westerbekes is that the water impeller is hard to get to. Whereas the Yanmars are right in front of the engine so it's easy to replace a bad impeller.

I have a new 2002 361 with a Yanmar

I just took delivery of a 361 with the 27 horse Yanmar.It runs very nicely. I don't know how the Westerbeke is, but all the techs here in San Diego really like the Yanmar. Dave
