Hi everybody,

A couple of yanmars have been removed from a cat here, one is a Yanmar 3JH4E
 in very good condition with just 552 hours and only four years old. The
engine is also 3 cylinder, weights 20lbs less with exactly the same size as
my Universal 5424. The main difference is that tis engine has 40hp. Is the
same engine that Catalina Yachts installs on their new Catalina 387. Which
has a similar weight as ours. I haven't heard of any C38 with this engine
yet...
What I don't like is that yanmar recommends a 3" exhaust....

So what do you think about the big yanmar???? need votes!!!!

The other yanmar is smaller... is a 3GM30 27 hp, which I know that it fits,
but this one has 912 hours and is much older.......

All comments will be appreciated!!!
