I am on the hard getting a Sidepower SE130 installed at the moment in my 50 foot timber cruiser not an easy job but I think it will be worth it. the SE100 is recommended for my boat but I went with the extra power of the SE130 I'm using one of the existing battery banks as the cable run will be...

I remember we had diesel outboards being trialed on one of our work boats on a salmon farm in southern Tasmania in 1996 ran beautifully but wouldn't pull the skin off a custard they have been around a long time. Here is a 300 Hp one...

I don't know what they do in the states but I used to service a lot of LPG vehicles and regularly had to clean a lot of paraffin residue out of the gas converters and mixers that would block everything up.

The Gardner displaces 10.45 litres and develops 100 HP at 1500 RPM but has bucket loads of torque right through the rev range it will do 10 knots at 1400 RPM but the extra fuel burn is not worth it, when cruising at 8 knots it’s not even breaking a sweat I’ve seen similar boats with much bigger...

50 foot 30 ton I have a Gardner 6LX and at 1050 RPM get 8 knots at 8 liters per hour.

My boat has a engine driven clutch pump that can be used for fire fighting or by turning a valve will scavenge water via a manifold that has 2 inch copper pipes running to each of the 4 water tight compartments.

I have the same winch brand new its sitting under the V birth at the moment and after the quote I received to fit it it will be staying there for a while.

It does say YW TEST Boat at the bottom of the listing

Hi Mate will check out the facebook page I am renting the birth off the PO at a very reasonable rate it would be good to catch up and get some advice as I am very new to cruising and still very nervous LOL I am getting a new Muir winch and chain counter installed as the old one crapped out.
