Hi Tony
I have a 31 Bertram with 2 180hp cummins diesels that are old but run just great with no major issues. My top end speed is about 16 knots at max rpm on both engines. I am running 20 x 20 props behind twin disc 2:1 running gear. I heard from the local gallery change the props, change the gear, change the injector pump etc. I would like to keep these engines until they die. What can I do to increase the hp to at least 210hp and get more speed without straining these engines? At the end I will repower probably with cummins since I think they will fit the same existing footprint. My neighbor is a Yanmar man and swears by them but I think that that would be too much of a modify job. I will stick with CUMMINS.
