    A friend of mine has two (2) diesel outboards on his 45ft sailing cataraman.
    So far they have been used for 5 years or more without any problems at all.
    They are expensive but very good from what I have been told. If you want
    further info just reply and I will get you his contact number. (Australia)

    Regards

    John M.

    Has anyone had experience with the diesel outboard motors? Yanmar
    makes one as well as a couple of less well known companies. After
    failing to find an affordable Prout we are looking at a couple of gas
    outboard powered catamarans. We worry about the explosion factor of a
    lot of gas aboard. Are we correct in thinking that diesel would
    provide less chance of explosion?
