[C320-list] Ahoy owners with Perkins engines

[Warren Updike]

What search, where?  

I found them rather arrogant on the phone, talking to me as though I was an
idiot and should hang on his every word. I refused to do business with them.
Still, they are very likely competent and have been around for a while; and,
they do have Perkins and Hurth/ZF parts and units. So, I might be willing to
swallow my injured pride and buy from them if the price is right.

Catalina 320, #62, "Warr De Mar"

I did a search and found lots of unhappy customers.
Just beware before entering a transaction with this company
