I have a 1987 E 35 Mark lll, with a Universal 25 (20 hp) with three point mounting. My Crankshaft appears to have seized during operation earlier this week. I am haveing the engine condition assessed by pros this week, and am researching options re: used or rebuilt diesel engines in the SF Bay area.
If you have any recent experience with new vs. rebuilding this type of engine I would appreciate your comments, thoughts or suggestions. Preliminary estimates to replace are in the $12k to $15K range, without including any packing gland, shaft or prop replacement.
Thanks, and happy sailing.
