Which got me thinking about diesel outboards. Yanmar has a 36hp,
but I think it best for now to stay with gas and give it the care it
needs. BTW, since you're deeply in the boating game, has there
been much written about "alternative" fuels for boats?
Seems there should be a market there for wealthy greenies.

There are some alternative fuel boats that have been around for a long
time, they are called sailboats.

Also, they are been some much publicized converted diesels that run on
bio-diesel that have made long ocean trips to encourage the use of
bio-diesel fuel.
