Huh? Diesel engines don't last 800 hours before major repairs??

The claim has been made by a poster on this ng who calls himself "steve" that
diesel engines as used on commercial fishing boats are often torn down for a
major overhaul after every trip to sea, about 700+ engine time.
Anyone here have experience with diesel engines in commercial fishing boats?
do those guys really trust their lives to engines that won't go even a thousand
hours? Anybody know why they do this?
Or is "steve" out to lunch?
Is this joxie the same person who claims that it's impossible to clean
the injectors of a diesel engine? Is this the same joxie who claims
that commercial fisherman go to sea for a month at a time on a single
engine without even checking it before they leave? Yup, that's our
idiot joxie.
