I can assure you that they don't. The group of owners make the decision on
when to renew, although clearly OwnerShips offer advice. OwnerShips has no
fixed policy on when to change an engine.
At the time our gearbox failed, we were given the choice of having the
engine stripped and repaired (or not) and the choice of having it replaced
(or not). We were also given approximate figures for each course of action.
The group of owners were the ones who made the decision.
We are aware of other OS boats which have had their engines replaced long
before 14,000 hours. There was never any pressure on us to have the engine
replaced at any arbitary point in time.
