Its a 6L3B not V. 18.13Litres 150BHP @1000rpm in fishing/work boats, or 195BHP @ 1300RPM in pleasure craft. Tickover at 250RPM. Great engines,but old Hugh Gardner would not move with the times and develop, a British motor industry disease, that's why there is nothing left on the road or sea truly British.
Beautiful!
Same engine as mine!
I love the throaty sound of the exhaust.
