Wonder how they would work on a triple engine Grady?

To me, it doesn't seem that the advantages of a diesel translate well to
an outboard engine, especially a turbo diesel. Am I missing something?


Yes. It's just another pitiful attempt by the four stroke crowd to
salvage something out of their ancient technology in the face of
clearly superior two stroke, direct injected technology. Namely ETECs
which, as we all know, are the wave (get it wave?) of the future. :)

Sad isn't it?


Those ancient 4 strokes do not blow up as often as those Evinrude Etec
forerunner clones.


Oh yeah - bring up a little bitty minor problem.

I mean come on - teeny weeny incident with a few 150 hp engines and
suddenly the whole world is falling down. :)
