amazing! super hard to find bowriders or daycruisers comin with these. I always been finding yamahas and zukes (doing excel data on some boats) - but hard to find like from classical brands or so. Hit me up if you know some! Cheers!!
emissions dpf scr egr systems, it’s a lot of extra sensors def fluid and maintenance, they finally getting more reliable in a semi truck world but unknown how it performs in a high rpm application, and that’s why it has a cosmic retail cost
A major advantage with a diesel apart from those mentioned, is that these motors are compression ignition motors meaning NO spark plugs and electronic ignition systems to worry about, particularly out in the deep blue sea and the weather changes for the worse. Question is can they be rope started because of the high compression. I drive a diesel Citroen.
@@regal105 It shouldn't be a problem, that problem has been known about for ages and been addressed, they have water separators. Of course any procedures in the handling of fuel and fuel tanks etc after being out must be adhered to. Don't forget that these are modern engines and should be very dependable if you follow the manual.
The main advantage comes at running at idle and reverse where you have awesome range and fuel efficiency plus far better control than on a gasser. Ideally they would be two stroke diesels but now that Evinrude has been forced into bankruptcy I guess that says all that needs saying at the moment. Right up there with Victory Brands from Polaris being forced out of business.
What hp are these units available in? Are there any tiller units? Can any diesel mechanic work on these motors or are there a lot of proprietary parts?

Hi Gerald, These outboards are 300 hp apiece and they're the only units available at this time. You can perform routine maintenance on these engines but for major work you'll need to take them to a dealer.
If they start as bmw block and if it doesn’t have def system they can be great but if it has all those particular filter def system is horrible unreliable
Battery storage is not solved enough yet. Cars and boats are very different. For a car when you get up to speed on a level road you need very little energy to keep it going. A boat is the equivalent of a car going up the steepest hill it can manage, laden with bricks, whilst towing a tractor. Much greater drain and all the time. I love Torqueedo motors and Silent Yachts, but nobody is about to be replacing fumes-at-sea any time soon.
@@darthkek1953 Thtas why you dont use batteries but tapp ZPE like Tesla and t Henry Mory did. Telsa impulse arc distruptor was a uni-flow 2 stroke. Also Joeseph Papp invented and built a pulsed plasma 2 stroke closed cycle using inert gas mixture, he was ruthlessly suppressed for it. It seems everyone is hung up on chemical fuels/batteries etc.
These engines: last 3x longer, save 25% on fuel, 485ft of torque starting at 1300rpm, 1.8mpg, 40-55 knots to speed. BRAVO! Well worth the price.

Its been 2 years! When will the update be videoed? As stated in this video!
So smooth, I love it !!! 👀👍😎
OMG that scotch yoke 2 stroke again, i love the 2 stroke diesel sound.

Water in the fuel would be a bigger deal though

@@georgedoolittle7574 they should have good efficiency throughout the rev range being able to run at lower revs with bigger more pitched props
It might be if a decompression valve in used. these are 2 stroke diesels.
Always a fan of larger and larger diesel outboards, this looks like it may be as big as they go though
Thats one far out 2 stroke diesel!
great review! what was the exhaust fume buildup like on idle?
service facilities and knowledgeable mechanics will be the issue. Mercury Marine needs to gobble them up in a few years for this concept to take off.

Price of this outboard 300 Hp Diesel engine is closed to Mercury 600 Hp outboard
I think these make nice cruisers, I mean every boat has that sweet spot.cruising , not at 70MPH hanging on for dear life ,
What are these engines doing to the marine wildlife seeing that have under water exhaust?
diesel is better in many areas than the gas engines ... read the science
I woulda like to have heard them at idle while they were chatting

Who makes these engines
They start out as BMW diesel engines modified by Cox.
If they start as bmw block and if it doesn’t have def system they can be great but if it has all those particular filter def system is horrible unreliable
@@Roman-vh1rr someone will figure out how to delete them I bet
OXE use modified BMW engines. The Cox engine is designed and made by Cox.
@@MrJamesBarratt i heard it was based on a car engine ??
Just think all that money you're save 25% your recover the money you pay for the engine Asap + 60% better T
This editor has no clue what is torque or power.
Dont make to many diesel outboards Elon will soon sink them with his Tesla motors.
The range of the diesel motors would probably be much much greater.

Boats are as hard of a problem to solve as aircraft.
