Not sure if we can be of much assistance, however, in Australia (quite a long way from the UK, we have a Fjord 24 that was fitted with twin Mercruiser 470 (170 hp 4 litre 4 cyl) engines - apparently quite popular over here, others fitted with single V8 280 hp Mercruiser. Our boat, built in 1976, first launched in 1978 has the frosted windscreen to the galley area. She is cream (deck and cabin) with originally ultramarine hull, later creamed (due to re-gelcoat).
Get another one - they last forever - the best hull!!
