A powerful new force in motorboating
Featuring Yanmar's latest lightweight engine construction technology in a compact package, this power plant exhibits superb fuel efficiency and a power-to-weight ratio that makes possible a higher top speed and a longer cruising range using the same fuel tank.
The increased horsepower in this straight 6 cylinder engine is obtained from a longer stroke, along with a more aggressive turbo/intercooler and tune settings. It also features 4 valves per cylinder and an extra high pressure fuel injection system.
Dimensions of 905mm (35.63in) high and 824mm (32.44in) wide, and with only 825kg (1815lbs.) of engine weight makes for a power installation that is lightweight indeed.
We expect the smooth power, together with the flat torque characteristics and low fuel consumption figures of the 6CX-GTE2 will make it an outstanding choice for any fast boat. This engine is set to become the "world power plant" for the motor boat enthusiast.
Easy on the maintenance man
An overall, simple-to-service design features cylinder inspection
ports in the block. These allow at-a-glance checks of crankshaft and
bearings and also ease maintenance work by making head removal
unnecessary. |
