  • 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!!
    If you are interested in sailing catamarans, or the cruising lifestyle, we love to talk about it, so leave us a comment, or connect using one of our other social media profiles, we are on Facebook, Instagram and on Patreon for the biggest fans! Find the links below.

    From another dutch sailor, long shaft only way to go, with good dnghy. The long shaft inclined up has more traction , the short shaft inclined up no traction. Then as backup engine, mounted on yacht stern, only long shaft can work. From 8hp upwards sufficient power, the engine gets very heavy above 15hp

    Thank you, I was always wondering why not to take a long shaft outboard for all boats. Your vodeo clarified it.

      Ah, great! Yep I was the same. The things I read seemed to indicate it would not be a problem. But now we know different 👍

    How much money did you pay and how much did it cost for the outboard marina engine shaft

    • @DutchSailingFamily
      @DutchSailingFamily  Год назад

      It was a good price I thought!
      We plan to share cost and all on some special member pages.
      We'll probably do a video on the haul out cost very soon on the channel!
