[alberg30] Opinions on Diesels

This year I  put in a rebuilt Atomic 4 from Don Moyer in PA.  If it is at
all possible I would acquire a rebuilt from Don as he does a first rate job
on all his engines and I think the Atomic 4 is a great match for the Alberg.
I think that if I had an unlimited budget I would probably think about a new
Yanmar diesel but the cost to refit for a diesel is extremely high and is it
really worth it.  Theres nothing like a gas engine when your motoring with
only a slight breeze on the stern and you arent smelling the telltale signs
of a diesel.  Don will send you a new rebuilt without a core exchange.  Good
Luck.
