Diesel Engine Choice?
jps wrote: In article , says... I have this engine in my trawler and am very pleased with it so far. It has 2200 hours and runs like a top. I switched it to Amsoil 15-40W marine diesel oil run through a bypass filter and hope it will give me 20,000 hours. I run it between 1600 and 2000rpm and get about 3mpg. Ask me when I'm even older and I'll tell you how it worked out. Capt. Jeff Single screw? What sort of headway do you make at 2000 rpm? jps You might want to go down to Chandler's Cove, see Dave Formo, and check out a Camano Troll. Could resolve your speed vs economy dilema- at least somewhat. |
