Default What are some qualities I should be looking for in a deisel engine?

Hi,
I in the early stage of thinking about re-powering. I have an 11 ton
sailboat.
I'm starting to do research on engines but am wondering what I should be
looking
for in an engine. I plan to cruise. I know I want fresh-water cooling, and
about
40 horses. Price of engine and spares is a factor. Parts availibility and
service
is also a concern.
What else should I be looking for?

Thanks
