It is the original Westerbeke Four-60. It ran a year ago and turned over but didn't start 6 months ago. Last week it wouldn't even turned over. Couldn't turn it via flywheel either but I didn't spend much time on it. It still has oil in it. My gut says that someone that knows what they are

Sure. I actually just modified a radar arch from a power boat that I found at a local chandlery. Had to cut it shorter and modify the mounting plates to match the deck curvature then used starboard as a base and thru bolted it. The backing plates are also stainless. Unfortunately, I don't have
