Beta Marine Oil Leaks?

Hi Folks,

For anyone that has a beta marine engine ... have you experienced oil leaks of any kind? Any other issues?

Beta Marine claims that they don't have oil leak issues due to newer technology but I wanted to get a better definition of what makes the newer engine technology so much better at preventing oil leaks, if in fact that is the case.

I am looking at either rebuilding my existing Westerbeke 46 or replacing it with a Beta Marine 43 for an upcoming extended cruise.

Thanks!
