http://articles.maritimepropulsion.com/article/New-300hp-(224-kW)-Diesel-Outboard29225.aspx 300hp, weighing 300lbs when a Yamaha 300hp gas outboard weighs 571lbs and a Mercury Veradp 300hp weigs 635 lbs ! If it comes to fruition, a possible marine propulsion game changer ( depends on cost though!) |

That sounds awesome! And i can't believe it is only 300lbs.... I would think the drive leg alone would be most of that weight on a 300hp... Even a old/new 2 stroke is way more than that. Nice find! |

Awesome figured it was some kind of 2 stroke. Best of three worlds (outboard, 2 stroke, diesel)... |

Even a old/new 2 stroke is way more than that. Nice find! You are correct. By the article, it looks like the engine by itself is estimated at 300lbs, designed for multiple purposes. They don't give a weight for a total outboard. |
