Another possibility that is worth considering is to share the boat (cost and
maintenance work) with someone else. Obviously, you would need to know someone
you trust on all those levels (sailing and maintenance in your absence).
Good luck,

Mine is 30018F787, so a 30-2 with hull #18 built in June 1987. The builder's
certificate was signed on July 15, 1987. Sailboatdata missed the first year.

If adding significant weight to the keel (increasing the righting moment), then
you should take into account the increased load on the rig.

Ha, I knew someone would ask! I forgot to time it :( But I'd put my estimate
at around 2 minutes. The flow was faster than I expected and I was surprised
at how much volume the engine took up before it came out the other end.

I also reasoned that since we sail on a lake with no commercial traffic and
never solo there is little risk in case I have to face an impeller break down:
I have a spare and tools on board, I know how to swap them.

Just my 2 cents, but if you have a folding prop it might be a good idea to
check that the two blades are freely moving. This could explain the vibration
+ loss of speed, but not the low RPM.
For the rubber smelling material in the bilge, I am currently having a similar
