US$ 60K for pulling the Yanmar/Volvo etc, building a pod, converting steering/fuel supply etc etc and also, hanging a DF350 on the stern I crunched the numbers for a Skagit Orca: I would have been into the project for approx. Seems like a lot until you look at new boat prices where a somewhat similar model with identical power is listed for $180K Still on my list is a new galley configuration, sink, stove and refrigerator, water tank, pressure water system and diesel cabin heater and once all that is done new upholstery and vinyl wrap for the hull. So, I replaced everything in the list above except the fuel tank, which luckily was rated for gasoline and in excellent condition, but cleaning was not trivial. New windshield wiper and upgraded my trailer brakes to disks. Repair of all the old holes left behind by old gauges.ĭiscretionary items that were also included in the $60K: Removal of old controls and gauges at helm(s) Renewal / Replacement of trim tab system? Installing rigging tubing through transom Installing steering tubes through transom *** I had PDR Marine build the bracket *** it's really nice. Painting of repairs on exterior of transom Grinding to prepare for transom reinforcement. Removal and disposal of old engine and out drive. No idea how many hours I have into this, but it would be measured in weeks and there are some pretty dirty jobs with the fiberglass work.Ĭan you reuse the existing fuel tank? Is it sound and rated for gasoline?įuel level sender? Diesel sender unit is likely not rated for gasoline.įuel Vent hose? My original was heater hose? And $60K if you do everything on my list below.
INBOARD TO OUTBOARD CONVERSION BRACKET UPDATE
If you update basic systems along the way then closer to $50K if again you do ALL your own work.

No LABOR = $39K for hull modifications, engine, bracket, steering and fuel system would be the minimum if you did all your own work and reused pretty much everything (Washington State prices inclusive of Tax). Curious what it cost to pull the I/O, build the bracket and integrate everything with the back deck. The following is his response (Avitar/handle = 26Osprey) -he includes lots of details and things to consider which is why I thought it was worth cutting and pastingĬan I ask what the conversion costed? I’m thinking of converting a 27 foot Skagit Orca and like you did, hanging a DF350 on it. he walks you through his labor and costs for the conversion: Just recently, I saw a post from a guy who converted a 26 foot Osprey (and hung a DF350 on it). The conversion concept is a well-beaten path for both Sea Sports, Ospreys and Skagit Orcas.
