Hi we viewed a Bayliner Flybridge today that had the original V8 replaced with a recon 4 Cylinder Turbo Diesel Volvo Penta. I could not find an I'd tag on the engine so can anyone I'd it from my picture please?
Also are they reliable with good spares availability?

Thanks for the input both,was told it was 100bhp and for rivers ok,but the big plan is a year on the river then berth her in Swansea or Aberystwyth Marinas so she may struggle,not agreed to buy her yet she is in our top 3, the other one has 2 x Perkins Diesels and the Princess has two petrols so a no go for me but the Mrs likes it lol

Looks like a TMD30 only about 85hp so it will be very under powered for sea use.

TMD30 looks different …

AQAD30 looks a lot closer

Both engines are old now, with some parts becoming more difficult to obtain.

What outdrive does she have. You might have gear ratio issues at worst…prop issues at best
