Do the Beta and get whatever is the 37.5 HP engine. It is just the right size for mine and your size boat. You may now have the option of a computerized control, Not available when I bought mine.
I replaced my Perkins 107 and the Kubota engine is great. Mine was marinized by Nani, but pretty much the same as the Beta. I did have a spring go in the Hi Pressure injection pump, but I think that was a freak occurrence. If you have the option to get a Balmar alternator, do it. The Nani. Came with some crappy ickystan alternator from one of those obscure little European countries and the mount cracked. I replaced with a Balmar, and Balmar regulator, and with Balmar you get the best tech help dept. I have ever dealt with.

They can’t get it to turn more than 3/4 of the way and they think it’s a bent rod or something. So, as far as I can see, the options are: 1. They ship this engine to a place that can fix/rebuild. I know this is the lowest-priced option, but also am aware that there’s a possibility it can’t be fixed or rebuilt. So, in essence, I’m gambling with all that time and labor. 2. Obtain a remanufactured Universal M-35 or a similar engine from Westerbeke and get that put in — anyone have any clue as to those costs? 3. Obtain a Beta-30 from Beta Marine for $11,000 including shipping and put that in. The Beta guy (who has been enormously helpful) says it should be a perfect match (same mounts, same power, lighter engine) Anyone have any advice, experience or comments with any of these options. If it were you, what would you do? Wanted to get this email out before I threw up. All the best, Edd Edd M.
