    In your eyes if you were looking for a alternative fuel motor for say a fishing boat is this a good reliable option. Its definatly alot lighter than a diesel inboard, I like to fish but I dont like paying for gasoline
    What do you pay for Jet-A??? I wouldn't run anything but aircraft grade diesel in it.

    As far as a diesel fish'n motor, I'd wait for now, unless your a jet pilot.

    I aint no pilot, im to irresponable to look after peoples lives
    A friend runs a helefishing/crop spraying business so ill give him a buzz tonight and get a price , but im sure its cheaper then pump diesel.
    How reliable on diesel keeping in mind that the plugs would require cleaning/replacing on a regular basis. Would it still produce close to the 185hp on diesel...........any long term damage if it ran it full time?
    Have you sea tested one, any thoughts on performance when comparing it to say a 200 opti?
    Cheers stinky

    Don't know what your road diesel is like over there (under there?) , but I would NOT run the JP on our road diesel.

    hey stinky, don't know if you remember me, I was a co-op at merc and took a class with andy pryzbyl at racing and I sat with you and dan, anyway, can anyone even buy a jp? I was under the assumption from the website that it was only available to government agencies...
    Some day... some day it will be mine!
