Volvo Engine Size

[jonlea]

I am talking to a German guy in Mallorca who tells me his boat has a Volvo Diesel engine in his Moody 33 and its size is 33KW. Does anyone know what that translates to in Horse Power?

Approx 44hp.

Jonlea,

33 kilowatt = 44.867 513 371 horsepower [metric]

Chances are making it the Volvo Penta 2003T, see further info HERE

Yep.

1hp = 746 watts

Ask him for the model name. It must be printed on the engine somewhere.. you cant miss it on my Volvo MD22L.
