Check for boost leaks, Hose, Inlet manifold gasket.

I have a few units after an upgrade, PM me if you want more details.

Here is another company that does plating. I haven’t used them for a few years but their work was excellent. Glasgow Chromers Ltd.

I am pretty sure its the same boat that was in Whitehaven a few years ago. Built as a wave piercing prototype for vaious patrol / work tasks. Possibly the same boat as in the link below. About | WaveAccess

Guess the fruit

Not for me, no where near enough accommodation space, availability of petrol in my cruising are means diesel is the best fuel choice. Nice boats and certainly have their place in the market but not for me at this point in my boating life.

All the best from the west coast of Scotland!

Max Rpms for that engine is 2800, Definately shouldnt be getting anything higher, check the rpms with a laser tacho don’t rely on the gauges then get some meaningful data and go from there. they are prone to boost leaks at the inlet manifold gasket and the silicone hose between the turbo and the...

Do you have a tangible update Mike?

Only based on my own experience with the 63P, Good base engines, simple non electronic control, no ECU to worry about. I have had a few boats with them in now. As Oldgit says all comes down to how they have been maintained. They can be a bit sooty so make sure Injectors have been checked /...
