Be very careful with those. http://www.yanmarsettlement.com/



In the case of the boat that I have casual interest in, the engines are much
newer than those referenced in the link. They are also model 6LY2A-STP's
which are close, but different.

In all fairness, the mechanic told me that they had re-powered a busy
commercial charter "head" boat based out of Plymouth with the Yanmar
6LY2A-STP engines. He said that they have been used daily during the summer
season for the past 2 or 3 years and are not exactly "babied". The charter
company has not had any problems at all with them.

The Volvo's that I had in the Navigator ran at about 2600 rpm at cruise and
2800 rpm at WOT and they seemed happy. 3600 rpm just sounds very high for
a diesel. It's something I'll definitely take note of should I decide to
pursue this boat.
