[Public-List] Repowering with a yanmar 2QM15

[Bill Boyle via Public-List]

Hi Greg,
We have that diesel in our boat.  From what I know the motor comes with an attached transmission.  It's a Kanzaki-Carl Hurth KBW10.  They call it a reduction gear.  It was in the boat when we got it.  What I can tell you is it will move the boat at a solid 6.2-6.6 knots.  With a clean bottom it will do 7.  The one drawback with that motor is it's noise.   When it idles it sounds like some one is beating it with a hammer.  It will smooth out at higher RPMs but it still is loud.  Don't know off the top of my head the other answers.

Dear all

Quick question. Is your boat powered by a 2 cylinder Yanmar diesel? specifically a 2QM15? If yes can you tell me what transmission is on it and what is you prop shaft diameter? Is the final drive straight out or is it off set ? Did you fit it yourself and how much work was involved in the converting the engine mounts from the A4? 

I ask because I am looking at a second hand Yanmar and wondering if it will fit my A30 without changing transmission etc.. Any help and advice would be appreciated.

Happy thanks giving to all of you above the boarder.

Sincerely

Greg Dawson
