[Alberg30] engines.. and a critical question

[Gordon LACO]

Hello there mates -

We too have agonized over the diesel/gasoline question. Caroline and I
laughed when our "analysis" revealed that it was more economical to buy a
used diesel with a boat around it than a new one and install it in our
Alberg!   My feeling is that the A4 is a fine engine and with reasonable
safety precautions is something that I don't mind sharing the boat with.
there is a diesel Alberg in our club - we have more power and the A4 is
certainly smoother and quieter.  My only complaint is lack of range with the
standard tank - I am working up to put a second tank in a cockpit locker.

Here is a question I would like to hear people's feelings on;  my wife and I
are debating this and I would like to win with your help.

When sleeping in the main cabin bunks - do you lie down with your head
forward or aft?  She says I do it backwards.  I won't say which I say is
most comfortable so that I can't be accused of poisoning the study.
