Volvo D9s

[mcanderson]

We have looked at a Cranchi 47 with 575hp Volvo D9s. I tried a search for D9s here, but it is too short for the search engine. Trying Volvo D9s throws up every Volvo post ever made.

So a direct plea for any information people might have on the D9 and things I should look for straight up.

Many thanks.

I've got 575 D9s 1200 hours now - very impressed overall, quiet, smooth, with a clean bottom economical. Fingers crossed always start immediately.
I have had a small flexible fuel pipe split (goes from filter into cylinder head) - easy to change and if you buy a boat with them in, change them as it makes a lot of mess when they split.

A good reliable unit with a lot of grunt.
