Propulsion for pleasure craft
With excellent power-to-weight ratios, our engines give boat designers and fitters all the flexibility they need when it comes to new boat design or re-power installations for pleasure craft.
They offer excellent reliability and fuel economy, while being clean, quiet and smooth in operation. Low noise, rapid starting and low emissions are achieved with advanced combustion systems that allow for precise, multiple injections within each combustion cycle, reducing fuel use and lowering emissions.
We provide marine engines for pleasure, commercial use and for auxiliary power.
Compact solution
Developed from our 1100 Series platform, the engines for marine pleasure applications are compact yet punch above their weight in terms of power, giving boat designers and fitters flexibility when it comes to new boat design or re-power installations.
“Our marine engines for pleasure craft deliver the reliability and performance that are so vital for a safe and pleasant voyage.”
Jonathan Wellstead, marine sales manager
