PS: Aren't your diesels two stroke?
Oh yes. You've got to love that sound. :-)

We once got chewed out by a guy in a small sail boat for making too
much noise. They guy had a lot of nerve actually since he was a
former tug boat captain. I explained to him the the sound of a big
pair of DD 2 strokes was "music to my ears".


Ain't nothing like the sound of a two stroke diesel. Music doesn't do
it justice - heavenly chorus is more appropriate. :)

FWIW, I'm seeing more ETECs this year.


Given a choice and the correct information, buyers will move to ETEC
every time.


What a giggle...

What's eTec's market share? One half of one per cent and going nowhere?


Actually I read somewhere that it's around 20% of the total market and
growing.
