I would go the outboard route if the boat is under sail 95% of the time and 
motoring is just getting in and out of a slip and you NEVER need to get upwind 
in a blow. Having graduated from outboard engines long ago, it seems the 
rrrrr-RRRRR-rrrrr-RRRRRR of an outboard rising and falling in a chop is still 
imprinted in my mind. It was child abuse! 
If your A4 is beat beyond repair a new one is around $5,000 or so +/-. I did 
some Craigslist scrounging and got an excellent late model A4 rebuilt by a 
ship's engineer for $1500. It has been running perfect since I got it :) I 
would HIGHLY suggest getting on the Moyer Marine site if you are not already. 
Many an unreliable A4 has been brought back to good health on that site.

This might fit your boat:

Buy this and then sell the boat LOL.

You can find ones like this to work on:
