[Alberg30] Universal diesels

[Mike Lehman]

11 HP is a little underpowered for the A30. It will be fine in flat calm 
water, but in an opposing current or headwind, it will be slow going. Also, 
very important is the mounting locations on the new engine. You boat 461 has 
a liner with an integrated engine bed. It the engine bed needs to be cut out 
and a new one built, it could be a major undertaking.

I have a diesel that I have not yet replaced with my atomic 4.  I don't
know the model #, but it's just over 11 hp.  I am worried that it won't
push the boat.  It's a completely rebuilt engine and I've put $3,500
into doing that.  Anyone know if this is the correct replacement?
Thanks,
Patty
