For Sale: 2 21 hp diesels

[Bill Gibbs]

2 Nanni 3.1 engines. Nanni is a French Italian company that marinizes Kubota diesels, very similar to Beta engines. 3.1 is a 3 cylinder 21hp Kubota. Both have about 1,000 hours. One is in good shape and runs well. The other had an oil-electrical Fire, and now has a $5k quote to overhaul. Also available are 2 saildrives, ZF SD10s. One in good shape and one that needs new shaft seals. I have a collection of spare parts, including the shaft seals.
These are coming out of a 47’ cat that is repowering. Cheap to a good home.

Sorry to hear you had luck with the fire.
Just curious, what are you repowering with & what sold you on the new choice?
If you are interested please post your impressions of the new engines.
Would like one of your nannis but you are a bit far away

[Bill Gibbs]

You guessed right, the Nanni engines are in Ventura California.
Beta was my first choice, but no dealer nearby, and I’m looking forward to warranty service. I went with Yanmar, because the dealer is in my harbor and has my favorite mechanic. They will arrive and be installed in the next couple months I hope. My wife informs me these new engines are all my Christmas gifts for the next decade at least.

Can you define 'cheap'.

[Bill Gibbs]

“Cheap” is a subjective term that is in the eye of the spender. If you’d like to discuss in the context of these engines, let’s take it offline. I’m bill@gibbsvineyards.com.

Which specific model Yanmar are you installing?
Yes can see your reason considering a favourite mechanic in the equation if you dont do mechanical work, not to mention the warranty consideration.

I do filter and belt changes, but that’s about it.
The motor is a Yanmar 3YM20 Engine w SD25 Saildrive

It's ok to simply add an additional post with the required info, Bill.

And don't worry, you are far from the first person to not notice that rule!
