For what it is worth, the original service documents from our boats commissioning specify the 800 hours interval.

Craig,

I have been in the tropics most of the time and during our circumnavigation
we averaged about 350 hours a year. I believe that Amel told me 800 engine
hours on the C Drive bushing and seals. I will reply back if I have that in
writing. I believe 3 years in the Med will work with good antifouling, but
2 years is about the outside limit in the tropics.

So, maybe you understand my 2 year haulout interval? There years would have
been too much for me.
