Is your A4 running OK? What are your motoring needs, present and future? I ignored advice to upgrade to a diesel when I bought Ox 8 years ago. It/she came with a rebuilt A4 on a pallet. That should work, I thought, it just needs installation. And it has worked, for the most part. But I'm mainly a daysailor who motors 20 minutes getting off the dock and another 20 minutes returning.
Just my $.02. If I needed to repower, I'd probably get a different boat with one of those fancy, new-fangled diesel engines. Or redneck it and put an outboard on the transom.
