  >But YMMV. I recall reading an account of a twin engine Nordhavn owner
  who made a passage from Hawaii to the West Coast. He took the prop off,
  ran half way on one engine, dove overboard and swapped the prop and ran
  the rest of the way with the other engine.>


  <This incident is true, but it was not a Nordhavn, it was a Grand Banks
  42.>
