Our new 50 year old lifeboat diesel is all but ready for installation.

I have added a fresh water cooling circuit to replace the raw water cooling. This system integrates a copper-nickle heat exchanger with an aluminum header tank, two new water pumps and a welded 316 stainless exhaust mixer. The fuel system now includes dual Racor 215 fuel filters at 10 and 2 mircon respectively

The engine has had the exhaust manifold disassembled and cleaned, injectors replaced with new. Spares now include a vast inventory for extended cruising though I keep my eyes open for more all the time

Everything has been painted and after some final assembly it will be hoisted aboard with our small manual crane.
