Keep those views coming!
I am surprised by the nearly single-mindedness here for Perkins and not a
mention of the Yanmar. In other venues I've been hearing negative and
positive views on the Beta products; some think the Yanmar vibrates and is
too noisy, but there have been no complaints about reliability or
suitability for the service.
Thanks everyone.

Presuming you were looking to buy a used boat, which engine would you
rather
see in her:
Remanufactured Perkins 4-108
New BetaMarine 1505
New Yanmar 3JH3E
These are all adequate to the job of pushing a 16000 # boat at hull speed,
so the question is one of your personal preference.
Thanks in advance,
