I think i would prefer something a bit more agricultural nice though these common rail diesels are i really dont like all the electronics in a marine enviroment. would a cummins 5.9 be too heavy? probably powerful enough though.

I couldn't agree with you more re electrionics, which is why I'm a CAT man, but they is big and they is heavy, The same can be said for that Hull. it's built very strongly and meant for twin outboards. The electronics is getting more and more difficult to avoid nowadays however.

To get good performance from an inbosrd on this boat it would be nice to keep the power to weight ratio similar or better than the original outbords. Dontt forget the diesel going to beed some form of drive system which will also add weight.. 325 kg gives 265 hp and 550nm at 2000rpm

The power to weight from these little devils is great and the engine is so well sussed for access to mainenance parts, that I'd certainly give one a go for leisure ppurposes before I bought a Yanmar.i think its the 6lb/260 which is very close in specs.

Now enough about Fantasy Boats I can't afford can you tell me where did you get the plates from to shove a Trooper engine into your Landie 110

6BY2-260 is the common rail 3 litre motor from the BMW block.

Hi Stu

I made the adaptor plate and engine mountings for mine as i had access to a big lathe and plasma cutter, so it was fabricated and machined.
however they are available off the shelf from

for a 110/90 4 cylinder or V8 (two different adaptors)
mines a series2 but i use a 110 gearbox anyway.

cummins 6bt 400Kgs 300HP
I bet with all that lovely cold seawater in the intercooler you could get another 100HP still a bit on the lumpy side though.
BTW my mates got a 6bt in his landrover

I really wish I had the space for this project

Which would then connect up very nicely to the very rare PP65 jet drive unit that is now sitting in your front garden Oh you didn't know about it, well I am sure you will find a use for it.

I would also question whether this is actually an Atlantic 21 hull or not. Why has it got an inboard engine compartment with stringers that look exactly like a P22? Did Atlantic 21s come with a big planning wedge at the stern and why has it got a Halmatic P22 console on it. Something not quite right here but for the price could be an interesting project, Viv's Christmas present perhaps
