Mike - The 5411 is coming out of my 1982 Catalina 27. It has 750 hours and was overhauled a couple of years ago. We will test compression etc when we pull it. We've decided to go with the 13.5 hp BetaMarine. Several others have made the conversion and been very pleased. The extra hp and bigger prop make a big difference. Will help with the tidal flow here on the James and beating headwinds out on the Cheasepeake.
