Hi, Thanks all contributers for a brill forum, I have used this site many times over the past few months whilst I have been working on my sailaway and have now come to a point where I need to ask a question re my choice of engine.
The boat is a 57'' Piper Semi Trad with a 17 - 10 prop, and I am going to fit a Vetus Engine. Vetus have said they think their 33 hp engine would be ok but I was thinking of fitting their larger 44 hp but still use my exsisting prop. Is this a wise thing to do?
I am concerned that in the future when I sell the boat the engine size ie 33 hp may put people off. Would this be the case?
Any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Chip
