M35B sailor michael

[sailor michael]

Hello and thank you for allowing me to join.

New to the group, and new to the Catalina 34.  In fact, we are so new, that our boat is not even ours yet!  We do sea trial and survey next week.  In browsing these very informative boards, I came across the alternator bracket SB.  What I am trying to ascertain is if our particular engine needs this modification. Please see attached photo.  I think this is the M-35?

Also, are there any areas of concern for the Catalina 34 (Model year 05) that I should be looking closely at?

Thank you,
