Two Contessa 32 Engine Replacements - Ep 3 New Beta Engine install

The new Contessa 32 engines arrive from Beta Marine so I can carry out the install. These Beta 25 engines are pretty straight forward to fit if you know what you are doing and quite a few owners self-install so this may be a good video to watch if you plan a DIY engine install on your boat. I only had minor challenges along the way, mostly due to the compact size of the engine bay. I’m thirsty after all that talking, buy me a beer?…. https://www.paypal.me/RefitAndSail If you have enjoyed this video and/or learned something you can now buy me a beer using the link above to make a donation to the channel. If I end up with more beer tokens than I need then I will put your donations towards a better camera, better mic’s and lighting so it ultimately benefits you the viewer. I don’t do Patreon, I don’t sell T shirts but you can help support this growing channel. Thank you My thanks to the owners of these boats for giving me permission to create this content based on the refit of their boats. ******************************************************************************************************* About Me I run a small business called The Solent Boat Butler and spend my days repairing, maintaining and refitting sailing boats (often Contessa 32’s due to my long experience with them). I'm mostly in the central Solent area of the UK. Being a cruising and racing sailor with many thousands of inshore and offshore sea miles logged I like to think that I bring a great deal of real-world experience to my work and help many new (and not so new) boat owners to improve and maintain their boats. When I'm not fixing boats I also provide some own-boat sail training, help owners with deliveries, provide pre-purchase inspections and deliver consultancy services to those that are refitting their own boats for cruising or racing.

If you are in any way unsure as to how to go about a project or are unsure if something on your boat is safe please consult a professional. ****************************************************************************************************** Music credit - Bensound.com and YouTube audio library (Dyala and Quincas Moreira) royalty free music.
