PURCHASE HELP! 52DA w/Mans vs 60DA

Are the newer mans a nightmare when it comes to service? The 60 only comes with mans, but the reason I like the 52 with mans is because the cruise speed is greater than the 52 with cummins. I'm pretty sure the 52 with cummins cruise comfortably around 22-24 knots, and the 52 with mans will cruise around 28-30 knots so I am told. After having an underpowered boat I don't want to make that mistake again, I would want to be able to cruise in the high 20's or low 30's.

Get the MANS! German diesel, and built like one. Engineering is superior to just about any other similar sized diesel out there...but with top engineering should a failure come about (which is rare) it is also more costly to fix.

However, when your crusing down the bay at 28+ knots without the engines even breaking a sweat you'll be glad you chose them.
