Would you consider a gas engine in a new build? The prices if the tier 3 engines are going through the roof and the fuel injected gas engines are pretty good, so maybe the equation is changing. I understand over a certain power requirement (hull size and desired speed), diesel is the only way to go. Also if a long range (canyon boat) is needed the diesel efficiency may be needed.
Here are my parameters: 31-33 DE, 150-200 hrs a year. coastal cruiser/recreational fishing built fairly light for a cruiser. Desired cruise 15-16 kts. Opinions?
