th e desire to be factual. Engines are rated
for maximum horsepower and rpm with all necessa ry auxiliaries
working. They must comply wi th modern standards 01 noise
level, exhaust emissions and fuel consumption. Curve (B) shows
the power available lor intermittent use. Curve (
C) shows the
power available
for continuous use. Curve (D) is the propelle r
law curv
e.

THE WESTERBEKE DIESEL
He re, at last, is power for that broad range of sailboats that
need more than 40 hp but less than
70 and that certainly
don't want the extra size, and weight of the larger engine.
At boat shows, people often tell us that they cou
ldn 't afford a
diesel. Actually , thoughtful owners are finding just the oppo-
site. Due to higher internal pressures, a diesel engine must
be
built better and stronger than a gasoline engine. he nce it
costs more. But better built means more dependable (fewer
expensive service
calls and major overhauls) and longer
lasting (less chance of having to buy a new one). The fuel it
uses costs less than gasoline and gives more power per gal·
Ion. So although the engine may be larger, tankage may be
smaller. There is less fi re hazard with diesel fuel. At best
this
ma y lower your insurance rates. At worst it could save
your life. Finally when you come to sell your boat, it 's always
worth more with a Westerbeke.
In the past, boat builders made do by build i ng their boat to
fit the engine available. Now , with a complete line of de-
pendable We s lerbeke diesels from 5 hp to 115 hp, the builde r
can put in
just enough engine for the boat, eliminating un-
needed power , size and weight.
Westerbeke diesels are sold and serviced by
Westerbeke dis tr i butors in aff maior port ci ties in the United States.
