Perkins 6354
I am the third owner of this engine. Has been in the same boat since new. Whilst hours unknown due to instrument refurbishment, the engine has been professionally maintained and only recently removed from a 38ft timber launch as part of a repower.
All ancillaries included - alternator, original instruments restored by Smith's, heat exchanger etc.
Mounted to a Borg-Warner Velvet Drive 2:1 transmission. Was rebuilt by Wes Jordan at Marine Transmissions in the last 20 hours. Strong and reliable.
