Thanks. I spoke with him. He doesn’t have a M-35 and, at best, I’m looking at
4-6 weeks of rebuild time with him. He said he’s swamped, so I took that as
more like 6-8 weeks.

Have a Beta 25 in our 33-ll, replaced a yanmar 2GM20, hardest part was removing
the old engine. We went with a bigger engine that just fit the space, but the
rails fit perfectly we had to add spacers under the mounts.. Local machine shop
did them in an hour or so.
Love the new engine,

Other than that, you got a great boat.

I have the same 2GM20F engine in my current boat, a Bristol 30 that officially
weighs 8,700 pounds as opposed to the 32's 9,600.
I regularly reach 6.3 knots in flat water at 3,000 rpm. It cruises comfortably
at 5.5 knots at about 2,300 rpm.
I have a two-bladed prop at 14 X 11 in an aperture.
I used teak oil and it grew mold and black spots over the winter. Bleached it
out as best as I could. That's why I have to refinish the interior wood.
I'll try miniwax stain spar varnish.

If you can get the exact same engine I'd do it. It will minimize issues
with the engine stringers and mounts, and alignment. I'm assuming you
were happy with your existing engine (when it was working.)
