you mean you are looking at a grossly heavy, pitifully underpowered engine
made
in some garage in Norway

Sabbs are wonderfully suited for what they do best in a displacement hull.
They will run forever with a minimum of care. They are as dependable as it
gets. Sabb makes starter kits for them, but they can always be hand-cranked
and will start at just about any temperature.

Offer the guy $1000.00 bucks and be overjoyed if he takes it. If you are
looking to power a displacment hull and understand the benefits of variable
pitch, then this would be a gift.

Good Luck !
