EP87. Choosing the Auxiliary Engine

I can’t put it off any longer, a final decision has to be made about Tally ho’s engine! In this episode we start by looking back at the boat’s early Paraffin engines, and then go on to discuss some of the options for a new “power-plant”. Vintage or modern, new or used, diesel or electric or paraffin or… nuclear?! There are a lot of options, and each one has good and bad attributes, but in the end I come to a decision which I hope is going to give all the reliability and simplicity necessary at sea, but with an exciting twist!
