Been there done that now listen to Hatterasguy.
I did a lot of checking before re-powering my 1977 Hinckley Bermuda 40 sloop. I had my original 40 hp diesel re-powered with a 75 hp Yanmar diesel saildrive and now I have something I love.
If you are looking at 40 foot motor/sails, it means two things: a) you got the money to do it right; b) you will be going far, far away. You do not want surprises far, far away.
The bigger question is are you sure you want that hole in the water?
