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.
