<<prices for the following catagories: +/-150 hp diesel engine/gear reduction/ shaft/prop/steering>> Engine & Gear, $12k in the crate. Add $1-2k for parts & supplies to install. Shaft, prop, stuffing box, bearing, $3k. Steering $2-4k depending on type. <<12 kv genset with asso. inverter/ battery banks/panels>> Above excluding wiring the boat, $12k. Wire and hardware could run another $2-4k All the above assume you are providing all the labor. Be aware that trying to come up with a boat building budget by listing all the parts and prices will always wind up with a lowball. It's not that things cost more than you estimated, it's that you forgot to list half the things you need. ===== Mark Richter, M.E., aboard M/V Winnie the Pooh, custom Morgan 46 Pilothouse Efficiency Trawler.
