MAIN ENGINE
If you have ever had the pleasure of starting a Detroit V12 engine you will agree it is a sound that you will never forget. The power exudes from it and the deep throaty sound reverberates around the Marina to let everyone know you have Detroit V12 engine on board. The unmistakable sound has been generated by the Detroit 12V71 engine rated at 400 BHP and the power is transmitted down the Twin Disc transmission with its 2:1 reduction to the propeller. This combination will power this vessel in comfort at around 8 knots and deliver up to 13 knots if required. The engine room is large and with its walk round facility it allows for you to have a workshop for maintaining the engine and its two Gen Sets.
