[Public-List] re-power

[Peter Milley]

I replaced the atomic 4 this spring with a 30 hp Vetus Mitsubishi diesel.
Seems to work just fine with the same prop.

> I re-powered with a Beta Marine BD722 which is a 20 horse marinized Kubota
diesel.  It is the same engine used by Olde Port Launch in Nantucket,
Martha's Vineyard, and Newport RI.  It fit very well with adjustable mounts
and there was no need for changing the aperture of the cut out in the keel.
Your existing prop will just have to be machined to match the pitch of the
new diesel.  Without an objectable current I can cruise at a steady 6.5K.  I
believe the engine was around $4500.00 and installation with a new tank and
water separating filter and upgraded panel was around $4000.00.  I had
already replaced my exhaust with a water lift.
