[alberg30] outboard engines

[Timothy C. Lackey]

For more information on this very issue--that is, installing an outboard
motor well on a boat similar to an Alberg 30 or a Triton, there is an
interesting article available onlline at
http://www1.mightywords.com/asp/bookinfo/bookinfo.asp?theisbn=EB00013740.
It is an article written by James Baldwin who, as you may know, has
circumnavigated twice in his Triton "ATOM".  Among other interesting
articles, there is one on installing an outboard well on his friend's boat.
It's good reading well worth the $4.00 it costs to download.

Might be a good solution for one who was considering an outboard on an
Alberg or any similar boat.
