Engine comparison

[woopeter11]

Hello, I'm Pete and new to the group. Wondering if there's been any recent comparisons done on small diesels, 20hp-50hp range (Yanmar, Beta, Nanni, etc.).

I live in Queensland, Australia.

Welcome aboard CF, woopeter11.

Work your way through these CF threads (some old, some recent).

FWIW, there is a Google Custom Search feature the pull down search menu at the top right area of each CF page and it is a pretty good way of finding previous CF threads/ posts. For the above search I simply used the words yanmar beta

Hi again, yep I'm new! Can't find the google Custom search feature you mentioned!
Also, what does FWIW mean?
Cheers,
Pete

FWIW = For What Its Worth.

See red arrows for finding the google customs search function.

Woopeter11 are you repowering your yacht? As a surveyor here in Queensland l see more Yanmar and Volvo diesel engines than any other brands.
Cheers

Thanks for that. You've been a great help! I'm sure we'll talk again.
Cheers, Pete

Hi Fore and Aft,
I'm currently in Canberra and will be travelling home to Gin Gin soon, then having a look around Gympie as we're looking at relocating there.
Are you still in the district?
I'm wanting to build a sailing cat from scratch so am beginning to look at options, e.g. engines.
All the best,
Pete

Pete I am still in the Gympie area, what type of cat are you looking at building?
Cheers

I live in Queensland, Australia.

Once you start reading I think you’ll generally find the Beta owners the happiest of the bunch.

Who doesn’t love a red engine?
