+2.
And congrats, of course. Great boat, in her size range.
Cat C9 engines?

Thanks MM.

Engines are:
Catapillar 3126Bs' 450-DITA (it says in the book)
Straight 6s' sound pretty cool too.
A friend, 'Dave the Shave' (long story but a bit of a petrol head) reckons they sound like a Dornier bomber as they wind up, but he meant a Heinkel really! :cool:


The Only Way Is Azimut :D:D

Excellent, and so true. :encouragement:

Doh, I would have sweared to have seen the C9 on the AZ46.
Maybe they were initially built with the 3126, and moved to the C9 in the later models.
Check the raw water pumps, they are rubbish and prone to leaking. Don't ask me how I know... :)
