I was thinking it was insanity to repower with electric until Rob Ball
posted...obviously much respect for him.Still, I think if you have diesel
smell, overheating, excessive vibration, etc., it is a maintenance issue. I
have none of that.Of course any combustion engine will have some vibration.
But excessive vibration is a signal that something else is going on...motor
mounts, shaft alignment, shaft issues, cutlass bearing, transmission,
prop...something is misaligned. I could not trade the ability to travel for
hours under power if necessary for safety (or to outrun the black flies)to
eliminate some vibration. And those who know me know I sail if at all
possible.I would make repairs.Remember, advice is free and you get what you pay
