Larry,

I'd say it is somewhere between OK and good to excellent. I really can't
say or make any warrantees. It has at least 750 hours and a partial
submersion in its history, but it was running well after all that. I am
swapping it out because I have the opportunity having had the need to pull
it to replace the starter.

I am only the second owner, but the first 600 hours of history are unknown
to me.

The transmission was submerged and needs a thorough flushing at a minimum.
It may be totally trashed.

I have a short sheet on it. If you email me direct at
(remove NOSPAM) I will send it on.

I am not ready to give it away, but $1200 would make it all yours.

Keep on sailing,

Ken

Is it any good? Might drive up from Charleston and carry it off for
you. My buddy Geoff just bought an Amel Sharpi 41' ketch with 4-108
in it. Nice diesel....

Might be a good parts warehouse...(c;

gets back to his boat. He will be in touch with you very soon.
Thanks....
