Help!


So it turns out that our starboard engine requires a new transmission. We have a 1982 Carver Mariner 3396 with two Crusader 350 engines. The ballpark quote for replacing with a rebuilt tranny is $10K. Reasonable???? Next question would be can they be re-engined with smaller engine as we don't ever go on plane and most of our anchorages are within 2 - 3 hours of cruising time from dock??? If so what might you consider????? We are hoping to boat for another 10 - 20 years, love the layout of our boat, but concerned about the cost. Should we repair, reengine or replace. Replacing would mean selling ours at a "fire" sell price and purchase something 15 - 20 years newer. Hope that I made sense here|
