The marine range is divided into engines for leisure applications and those for heavy duty commercial applications. The product range is discussed and several models are illustrated. Important factors considered in product development have included: durability, the reliability of parts supply worldwide, power-to-weight and power-to-volume ratios, and the ability to use any type of diesel fuel.
