has the Yanmar 13 hp which was installed around 1985. When I first
boat the boat the issue wasn't the 13 hp it was the 2 blade prop installed
with the A4. The previous owner had the Yanmar installed but
never changed the prop to meet this application. I moved from the 2 blade
to a 3 blade sail prop 13 X 13 which has had a impact on the boat
responds to a head sea and winds. I would like to see a little more
power, would definitely opt for the diesel over the gas if the price is
close.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=962215502-06012003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Thanks for the feedback. The installation is original and the man
who owns the boat used to work for Whitby boats and knows them quite
well. My real question relates to the power issue and that is - does the
Buhk have sufficient power for extended cruising in the Great Lakes. I
understand the economic and safety issues of gas vs diesel but my concern
is the power issue and the fact that the Bukh is only a single cylinder
engine.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

the boats are similar in price, condition and options, I would
purchase the Alberg with the diesel. The motors are more fuel
efficient, safer than gasoline and command a greater price on resale. I
would make sure the installation was done correctly which includes a
fuel/water separator in the fuel system, water in a diesel will cause all
type of issues with the fuel system.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=905494800-06012003><FONT face=Arial size=2>For
those of you who are more familiar with the A30 variants I have a
request for your input. I am looking at two similarly equipped A30's
one has the buhk diesel and the other has the atomic 4. With out
wishing to offend anyone, what is the opinion as to which one I should
give the greater consideration. My main sailing will
be cruising Lake Erie and eventually the other Great Lakes and the
Northern Channel for several weeks at a time along with my
wife.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
