They can pull one hell of a pair of props. Those HP numbers dont relate to comparable gas motors for sure. These are probably a thousand each on torque numbers.
Yeah and they are 2 stroke too, 2 stroke diesels are amazing and i love the one i have, she consumes so oil though and just cut in some BRP XD-100 into her for oil top off but boy that oil is 36$/gal not cheap. i got mine on xd-100/shell rotella low ash with good results so far, the XD-100 has better film strength and more stable as she gettin hotter and cleaner burning too
@@jlo13800 4 stroke... its an FPT inline 6 24v 4 stroke engine, designed mainly by or in joint venture with Cummins. It is the same engine as the 6.7L produced by Cummins, you can look up the specifications on that engine because its much more plentiful than anything on the FPT products.

@@jlo13800 they’re definitely not 2 stroke...
@@GusCowMiller Then what are they?
@@GusCowMiller They could be converted to 2 stroke with a few mods, would be a fun experiment.

Lake Geneva?
THATS LIKE 1 MILE PER GALLON..
AND WHATS UNDER THE DECK.. NEALY 40 FEET LONG AND NO HEAD, NO BED, NO BAR?
foam apparently lol
If you have enough money it doesn’t matter
80mph at 3K RPM if I heard that right is pretty impressive.Why build a diesel from scratch when Cummins are a great engine to build off of
They are FPT Fiat Power Train built.
How does the Cummings compare to Mercury?
In the Philippines, some deep sea fishermen use 8DC9 diesel truck engines to run their 20 footer wooden fishing boats.
No such thing as a cummings
@@wilsont1010 no such thing as a Cummings
Who is the dealer of the engine mercury 6.7 550 hp.
They would be Cummins 24v with turbo's, not superchargers as said.
They are FPT engines. FPT also builds the engines in Case IH and New Holland tractors.
What if you hit a log or big piece of wood or something that floats.
then kiss your arse goodbye
villiers man No! 😩🤦🏾♂️ You in most cases jump over it or cause the hull to be lifted or airborne
If your drives get torn off you spin a doughnut and fill with water. No biggie. Call state farm.
I wonder if that's a Cummins with the Mercury logo on it. Anyway still cool.
FPT Industrial engines. A division of CNH who is owned by Fiat.
@@laddhooks Cool
Ladd Hooks voltzwagen diesel gate all over again
Prob a cummins
It's a 2 stroke diesel too.
A little flash to spill fish guts all over it.
40 foot boat that Seats 4 people. Why? Lol.
Ugly piss yellow square gel coat makes for a hideous looking cigarette.
So its slower than many off the shelf bass boats... ok
Cummins
not fast...
This is just a rebadge Cummins 6 7, shame on Mercury for making people think they built this. 👎🖕
Not Cummins. FPT Industrial builds these. They also build the engines in Case IH and New Holland tractors.
Perry Daniels Not everyone will think that because not everyone is a complete idiot like you.
And you think they haven’t been doing this for years? Mercury NEVER built their own engines for MerCruiser driven boats.
It’s a fiat diesel
FPT are Fiat Power Train, so it's an Italien Engine .
Waste
What an ugly boat!
Mercury's is very very shit.
