The 1,100 LB Diesel Outboard Built to OUTLAST Every Gas Engine

The 1,100 LB Diesel Outboard Built to OUTLAST Every Gas Engine For decades, every outboard maker chased the same goal, which was to take weight out of the engine. Then a British company backed by a billionaire went the other way. It built a three hundred horsepower outboard that weighs roughly eleven hundred pounds, close to double a comparable gasoline engine. It hung a cast iron diesel block off the transom, rated key systems for five thousand hours and tested it for years in heat, cold and salt. In twenty twenty-six, that engine is reaching its first paying customers. This is the story of why Caudwell built it heavy on purpose, and whether that bet can really outlast gas. Everything outboard, explained. From two-stroke legends to the latest 600 HP V12s, we explain how outboard motors work, which ones are worth your money and why some engines last 30 years while others die young.
