We've installed the two new engines on our boat but now comes the most important part - and if we get it wrong, we're screwed! We need to install our raised engine beds (that we fiberglassed ourselves in last week's video) and then figure out how to align the new engines to the prop s...
We installed a brand new Nanni engine in our boat but it doesn't fit in the space so we need to make new engine beds out of wood and fiberglass to raise it by 5cm so that it will align to our prop shaft. As there's a cyclone headed our way, we decided to get to work on the second engine so...

We are removing our old Yanmar engine from our Leopard 47 catamaran so that we can replace it with a brand new Nanni N4.50. We have to get a little bit destructive and cut away parts of our boat to make it fit out the hatch, but we are determined to get this project finished and see this broken engi...
