Should be real good motors, there's a guy down in Avon who is a semi-retired diesel mechanic, used to be a certified Cummins mechanic. He does Ernie Foster's boats(Albatross Fleet), and they all have versions of that motor. If you know anything about Ernie, then you have to be assured that they are reliable, economical motors. It is the same block as the one in Dodge pickups, been around for a long time. I would be more worried about the hull, I think Blackwatches have a cored hull.
