High performance straight six
For boats, the ability to slot an engine as low down as possible, or to mount twin engines low in the vee of the boat has been critical. The straight six has thus become the configuration of choice, as the crankshaft is still not as long as to require heavy strengthening, there is more capacity advantage over a four, and a six is far narrower than a vee-eight.
Mounting
The mountability is excellent due to its flat top, and due to its narrow profile. Repowering a gasoline engine boat is now a pleasure, for this engine has more muscle and endurance to match virtually whatever was previously being used.
Features
- Race proven performance is inherited. Power-to-weight ratio is even more startling. Endurance and fuel economy are at a level that only a diesel could achieve.
- It follows current user trends, ie the demand for more power and more speed. And because it is a diesel, smaller fuel tanks can be used saving hundreds of kgs of weight in a fast boat. A speed increase becomes immediately possible.
- Direct injection using ultra-high-pressure fine mist injectors makes for excellent economy together with superb performance, yet there is minimal smoke under hard use conditions. Fuel savings, precious energy savings, and an increase in safety accompany the change to a diesel.
- All service points are conveniently placed high on the engine. Renowned Yanmar reliability and parts backup complete the package.
- An engine that will dramatically lift the performance of virtually ANY hull, and likely put you in the race winners seat, if you so desire.

A powerful new force in motorboating
Featuring Yanmar's latest lightweight engine construction technology in a compact package, this power plant exhibits superb fuel efficiency and a power-to-weight ratio that makes possible a higher top speed and a longer cruising range using the same fuel tank.
The increased horsepower in this straight 6 cylinder engine is obtained from a longer stroke, along with a more aggressive turbo/intercooler and tune settings. It also features 4 valves per cylinder and an extra high pressure fuel injection system.
Dimensions of 905mm (35.63in) high and 824mm (32.44in) wide, and with only 825kg (1815lbs.) of engine weight makes for a power installation that is lightweight indeed.
We expect the smooth power, together with the flat torque characteristics and low fuel consumption figures of the 6CX-GTE2 will make it an outstanding choice for any fast boat. This engine is set to become the "world power plant" for the motor boat enthusiast.
Easy on the maintenance man
An overall, simple-to-service design features cylinder inspection ports in the block. These allow at-a-glance checks of crankshaft and bearings and also ease maintenance work by making head removal unnecessary.
