FYI, you once expressed an interest in the longevity and operating costs of diesel generators on larger boats. We installed our 20KW Kohler in the fall of 2004, shortly after we bought the boat. So it's now 13 years old and has about 5800 hours of operating time. That's roughly comparable to a car with 300,000 miles on it. The generator has not been maintenance free, but has never required a tear-down/re-build, mostly little things like sensors and hoses, but also an exhaust elbow, a couple of new starter motors, and several raw water pumps. Bottom line is that it's still going strong, starts right up in a split second, does not smoke, and uses almost no oil - about as well as you could expect for a hard working piece of machinery of that age. On average it burns about 1/2 gallon per hour. I'd estimate maintenance costs at about $1 per hour, maybe a little less. It has served us very well in the past week with our hurricane related power failures, powering the entire house when needed, including the central air conditioning, electric hot water and electric stove. --- This email has been checked for viruses by AVG. http://www.avg.com |

Ours is not, at least not for long periods of time, though I don't know what the duty cycle is. The one time so far when I've had to have it running for days, I kept the load light, meaning I only ran the heat pump air conditioning a few hours a day. Everything else...lights, refrigerators, well pump, microwaves, et cetera, add up to a pretty light load. Interestingly, its output is 17KW, not much less than the one on your boat. It's air-cooled and sounds like a gasoline-fueled lawnmower when running. |

My generator is designed to fill in for power outages that range from a few hours to a few days or a week or so. I'd have to look it up, but I think the Generac burns about two gallons of propane gas per hour at near full-load, but don't quote me on that. |
