Hello John,
I'm new to the Alberg 30 website and noticed your posting on changing  
from a Gray Marine to a diesel.  I have hull 138 which has an  
outboard mounted on a bracket on the transom.  The boat originally  
had a Gray Marine and the instrument panel is still there looking to  
be in good shape, along with the throttle and shift levers.  The  
engine mounting bed looks to be 'ok', and the original shaft and  
coupling plate appear to be still in position.  I don't know why  a  
previous owner removed the engine.  I must admit the 9.9 Yamaha  
pushes the boat along very well and cheaply.  So removing the present  
setup doesn't make much financial sense.  But, it spoils the lines of  
the boat.  So, that's why my interest in changing back to an original  
engine.  I can't justify to myself the initial cost of the diesel and  
so am interested in learning about changing from outboard back to the  
an original running Gray Marine.  I see lots of ads for Atomic four  
parts and related upgrade items, are there similar parts and people  
who can repair or rebuild the Gray Marines?  If you're selling your  
old engine, I'd be interested to know your price.  I'm in Portsmouth  
Rhode Island.  Thanks, John Gilmartin tel. 401 848 2351
