S3, #5 // 2013 - Beta Engine Refit on ARCTURUS

Season 3, #5. Andy reflects on the refit of ARCTURUS’s engine in Sweden in 2013, when he, Mia & their friend Micah installed a new Beta Marine 16hp diesel. We look back on why we chose the smaller model, why we painted it blue (and not red), how we chose the prop, how we mounted it and what we learned from the experience.
