Scott wrote First, would you advise buying the kit and starting from scratch or buying a KR in the boat state? Second, which of the engine options is the most reliable? Which provides the best bang for the buck? Approximately how many hours, on average, will each of the engines last? -------------------------------------------------------
Building. Depending who built the boat stage, it may be a good start to your project. Keep in mind you should get someone to look at it before buying, may save you some headaches Engines Many around depending on you budget, VW, Corvair, RG2000. Jabiru, etc etc. I like the RG2000 as it has a gear drive, therefore NO prop loads on the crankshaft, you can see it on my web page. or contact VW engines . www.philskr2.50megs.com http://www.vw-engines.com/ But it is a purpose built engine and not a self assembled and priced accordingly. You need to look at them all. Good luck with the hunting. Welcome to the KR network Phillip Matheson 0408665880 (cell) VHPKR Australia.
