VolvoAQD32 +outdrives

[boatone]

I am considering buying a 32 foot cruiser fitted with twin Volvo AQD32 diesels and Volvo 270 outdrives.
Is anyone familiar with this setup? Is there anything specific to watch out for?

Volvo Penta AQD32A

Manufacture 1969 – 1977 ( Peugeot based unit )
6 cylinder in line
3.17ltr
106hp @ 4000rpm

Boat seem like a deal, to good not to pass the opportunity by?

Contact any Volvo Penta dealer and ask the question, what service items and major overhaul items are still produced / available to buy and at what price.

This might very well make you re-think about parting with your hard earned.


Regs…

Hiya, I have owned a 32ft cruiser with this configuration for the past five years and have had no problems. I keep the engines serviced regulary, any parts I need I get from KEYPART or COASTAL RIDES, Paul at Coastal Rides can replace or recondition the complete lump if required, never had to put him to the test though.
there are plenty of parts for these very reliable engines still out there.
