I just read about the Oxe. It uses a 2.0 GM diesel. According to the article is also costs twice what a 200hp Yamaha 4 stroke goes for. Ouch!
.....
Diesels 'usually' last Ingersoll than a gas job and are much more economical on fuel. But what you save in fuel costs probably don't over ride the massive up front expense of the whole unit. Bad trade off IMO.


They said the main market was military and commercial, with some tenders for yachts where price was no issue but fuel compatibility was. It wouldn't make sense for pleasure boating.
