I've got a 1966 Hinckley Pilot with a 1978 Westerbeke 40 HP diesel
that is probably on its last legs. Would much appreciate anyone's
wisdom/experience on choosing a replacement diesel. My yard is
recommending another Westerbeke but all the sailors I talk to say
Yanmar.

Take a look at Beta, they provide a marinized Kubota.

I would not hit a dead dog in the ass with Yanmar.

Had one, not interested in another.

Westerbeke is the OEM of the month.
