Good morning. Still on the hunt for a boat. I have always had gas engines before. I know them and the maintenance they require.
What are the pro's and con's to having Diesel engines? I was looking at winterizing costs at it appears that marina's charge more money to winterize them.
How about finding a diesel mechanic? I have spoken to a few folks and they say they are hard to find someone to fix.
I am looking at a boat with 800 hours on the diesel engines. I am looking at the same boat with gas engines with 300 hours. Which would your rather and why?
Thanks for the help - trying to make the right decision on which direction to go...
