1) An occasional Catalina 30 owner will call about installing an outboard on their early boat. Once the original Atomic 4 or early 11 h.p. diesel dies, it can be cost prohibitive to re-power, especially if you only sail on a small inland lake.

In some cases owners may consider a good quality, extra long shaft Honda or Yamaha outboard as a replacement. In addition to the engine, you will need this power prop, our 4 Spring Motor Mount, and a set of Motor Mount Transom Backing Rails.

This is not an ideal solution and might only be considered reasonable for use in the most benign conditions. But under those circumstances, you might add years of useful life to your Plastic Classic.

2) Does not include castle nut, cotter pin, thrust washer, and prop bushing. See May We Also Suggest below for the Hardware Kit #Z5224.
