Hmm, cute looking diesel.
Wish I was 20 years younger..
Why do ya want such a small diesel?
It may be just as expensive as a bigger one, or more due to the low sales volume and the precision engineering of the
parts.
I am guessing here, but if ya are a sailor with a small sailing
boat, say a 20'
pocket cruiser, ya need at least 10 or more horsepower.
20 would sure be the goal as one could run at reduced
RPM, yet have some reserve
power for them nasty conditions with the
current and
wind in yer face...
A 4 HP diesel..?
Hmm, would that be for the dink, or as a spare for the spare...?
(This
CSY Man
sails a 33'
boat with a 51 HP engine and are perhaps spoiled in that regard...Yet I have never met a sailor that has complained that his engine or his
anchor are too big. Perhaps the 8 or 10 HP diesel can be had for the same
price as a mini-4 ?
Check it out...)
