I dunno, I have somewhere north of 7000 on our 60. It’s tired, and repairs are expensive, but it still runs pretty good. I think the 60 was discontinued b4 the 58, so your parts may be more resonable.

We are coming close to closing on our 1980 424 ketch. The boat has a Westerbeke 58hp with 2500 hours. I’ve only dealt with the Yanmar that came new with our other boat. Questions:
Is this a reasonable hour usage for the engine or are we coming close to major refit? What is considered a “high” hours total on this engine?
Thanks
