NO mention about the terrible design flaw from the outgoing 3.5 sbcg generator that has TWO belts UNDERNEATH the generator which is a nightmare to service. Westerbeke should have never sold a generator with belts located under the unit.

Mr. Morot,
We apologize for any difficulty you've experienced servicing your 3.5 SBCG. Some applications can be more challenging if access is difficult. If we can assist by answering questions you may have, please e-mail [e-mail].

I have a 28 Express with that generator, what a horrible design. Having access means nothing, the belt being under the unit is a major flaw, my generator is unusable.
