I have the full keel version, in Whitby. As with the others, I would have no reservations about this engine in this boat. The 33ii is a very easily driven hull, it does not take much power at all. Going into a chop is not something you will not want to do for hours - its a light boat, and flat bottomed forward. A rough ride. I have done it and the engine was adequate but in the worst I slowed to 4.5kts. (if memory serves) Props matter a lot. I have experimented with 3 different props in Windstar and have found a huge difference. First the original which was a very tired folding Martec, not great. A new folding Gori made all the difference. I would have your friend confirm what's on the boat and that it is the correct diameter and pitch. Dave
From: Bob Hickson <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Subject: Stus-List C&C 33 mark 2 (1985) Message-ID: <[email protected]> Content-Type: text/plain; charset="utf-8" A good friend is interested in making an offer on a 33 mark 2 centerboard version. The boat has a Yanmar 2GM20 with a 2 blade feathering prop - 16 Hp. This is the basically the same engine that I have in my 29 mk 2. It would seem that the boat would be underpowered with this engine. Does anyone have information that might help to answer this question. Did C&C offer an option of the 2GM or 3GM engine in this boat? Bob Hickson?Flying Colours 29 mk 2Toronto
