worlds biggest ships are 2 strokes, no gearbox needed just like an e-tec

Compression will no doubt help,but getting the rpm flash of a 2 stroke v6 isnt going to come easy
Until we get the electric motors. Lets get Tesla to make an outboard motor! Just store the battery in the boat where the gas tank would go.
I just got my BF 150 shop manual in the mail today. The specialty tools alone might break me.
The Project BF 150 made over 300 HP on the dyno. Will get some details soon.
I was wondering if someone would do this on the smaller engines to where we can have some hope for the future.
Pump gas CR ?
Where(RPM) does it make that?
I think this is a cool project, however there is to much negativity involved with the nah sayers.
If no one ever tried anything we would be stuck with the same ol, or nothing at all.
Agree 100% with you Mr. Ashby. No negativity on my part I assure you. I just get curious for more details when the envelopes are pushed. :cheers:
I haven't noticed any real negativity yet. It's definitely an experiment, but so far so good. Could be an economical alternative, using new technology for 225 HP + engines.
This engine makes more power in the higher RPM. Goal was to have it around 8,000 RPM. I think this works well on lighter fast hulls.
