Evan,
What are you going to do with one(a) diesel in a catamaran?

It's the main propulsion engine. We have a Yamaha 9.9 4
stroke 'high thrust' outboard as the "docking thruster".
It's positioned against the other hull to provide a good
turning moment.

The outboard used to be the main propulsion motor but it
only gives 5.5 knots and ventilates in a chop. Also it's
range and reliability is less compared to a diesel.
