See what you must know before buying an Outboard Engine. Learn from the mistakes I made when I bought my outboard engine. I wish this video was there when I bought my outboard engine. Shaft length, engine size, engine weight, boat transom.. How do these things come together to get the right outboard engine for your boat? I had no clue, but I do now! And, what engine size do you need to foil board or wakeboard behind your boat? Watch the video so you don't make the same mistakes. I'm here to help!
This is episode 28 of Sailing around the World. We have started our journey in Cyprus, and are now making the most of the winter season in Turkey to prepare for lots more cruising.
Enjoy episode 28 of the Dutch Sailing Family!
We are on a huge adventure to explore the planet with our sailboat, a Lagoon 420 Sailing Catamaran. One of our first videos was a full boat tour when we considered buying it, have a look if you'd like to know and see all: • We Bought A Boat - Ep....
I must admit, some of our inspiration comes from Sailing La Vagabonde, Sailing Zatara, Sailing Holly Blue, and World Towning.. although we've been talking about sailing around the world for about 3 years now.. it suddenly is coming a lot closer, and fast!!
