I’ve had boats my whole life, currently have a 1997 sea ray 500 Sundancer with twin Detroit 6V92 diesels. The ONLY way to go is diesel with this size vessel. Do not electric swap it, that’s just stupid. Do not convert it to gasoline, you’ll burn through a TON more fuel. Diesels are the most efficient option and they do give you plenty of speed. If you want speed your prop will have a bigger impact than an engine swap... I love your channel but you have A LOT to learn about boating my friend. There is a significant amount of good advice in these comments. Take it seriously.

[@CodyBosch]

Could you imagine the amount of fuel gas engines would burn in a boat that size? *Gag*

[@bflo716]

Boating with Cody well, my last boat which was a ‘91 Wellcraft Corsica 34’ with twin 454’s I can tell you first hand making the switch to diesels has actually saved me money over the course of a season lol crazy to think that a boat 16 feet longer, 2 feet wider, and a whole lot heavier is cheaper to run than a smaller twin engine gas boat. Plus, it’s a MUCH smoother running boat

[@kcjdelanoit]

I hope he reads this, boating is a whole different ball game compared to cars.

[@portermcconoughey5935]

You might save money with diesels, but where’s the fun in it, there is nothing like hearing a big block engine rumble at idle and growl at 6000 rpm

[@Nathan-gj8ch]

I seen a few electric swapped sail boats all 3 sank because of silly stuff like the exhaust port was not plugged properly on a $750k boat. You can't just rip an engine out of a boat and shoehorn in something else with out all the R&D that goes with it.

[@BlueDually4x4]

Just fix the engine that's in it. The last thing you want is some goofy engine that no marina is going to have parts for. Or have custom one off adapters that fail and leave you out in the middle of no where. Its a Cummins, even if the marina doesn't have the parts it would only take a few phone calls to any heavy duty truck or equipment shop to find parts for those engines. Nearly every town has a truck or tractor repair shop. And being diesel, you don't have an ignition system at all, its literally an easier engine to work on. Yank the engine, and fix it. I'm not 100% sure but those engines are probably sleeved, so even if one cylinder is trashed the block should still be good and you can just replace the damaged sleeve, piston and rod without changing out anything else.

[@radbug]

yeah i pretty much wholly agree with everything you said. need to keep the cummins and rebuild them. any other engine is just a worse engine lol

[@kevinhornbuckle]

Good advice. Reliability in marine applications is a life safety issue.

Agree 110% What BlueDually4x4 said is all true!

[@maleficentcop2752]

BlueDually 4X4....yes, yes, yes...👍👍 If they are not sleeved it could be, unless the cylinder's majorly washed out....if he is hell bent on an engine swap, 1st choice would be pull both engines & go back in with newer ungraded Cummins. 2cd, the Cats, for all the same reasons you pointed out for the Cummins. BUT DON'T GO WITH THE DETROITS.... Not that they are horrible motors...for this application they are just wong, for a myriad of reasons. As for the Lamborghini engines, it could be done, it is more a question of should it be....??? Operating, maintenance cost, & reliability...????🤔 Electric, honestly I'd love to see that one but with out the solid-state battery, or something like it, it wouldn't be practical, not to mention the infrastructure along the water just isn't there.....But good luck & sorry about the bad luck....!!!!

WORD

[@ihatesigningupforsht]

"Oil pressure gauge never worked". I'm willing to bet that the oil pressure gauge actually was correct and that this motor never had oil pressure since it was purchased.

[@sparkie5571]

and them removing the oil recirculator and putting it in an oil catch can probably is what killed it.

[@snuffysmiff]

But do you think it would have run 120 miles without any oil pressure? I know diesels are tough but he wasn't exactly loafing it down the river...

[@Bread996]

This engine wouln't have made it out of the harbor with no oil pressure. It wasn't leaking oil, it was burning it.

[@dynaman1600]

Sounds about right if it sounds to good to be true it usually is not $42,000 Paid . Was $750,000 when new.

[@EricUdell]

Regardless, the fact is they left without a working oil gauge and apparently didn't check the oil on "bad" motor on the morning after the stay at Rogue. It was asking for a problem like this.

[@theislandsc]

As a marine mechanic their are a few things you NEED to check before going out or starting the mains. 1.oil in the engine and transmission 2.coolant levels 3.sea water flow 4.belts 5.clean fuel getting to engines 6.smaller things like leaks or clean air filters engine room fans working.

[@nWsquidasaur]

You have some awesome Engines in there already, no need to swap them, a rebuild will be great! For a boat like that you really need a marine Diesel engine, designed to be run at constant RPMs for long periods, and to have a wide operating temperature range.

[@radbug]

THIS.

[@calvinh.8882]

Best advice yet. 100% agree.

[@macheifach]

I have no clue about engines in general but this advice sounds reasonable also, I would just talk to some boat specialists and figure out more options, given by experts.

[@calvinh.8882]

@@macheifach I'm not a "boat specialist", but I do know that with a boat of that size and weight you want diesel engines because you need engines that put out horsepower and torque at low RPM's. Yes, he could put two Lambo' engines in it, but they will need to be run at high RPM's in order to produce the type of hp. and torque needed to move it. That means he will burn through A LOT of gas in a short period of time. Prob' around 4 gallons per mile at cruising speeds, maybe more because two Lambo engines will be working hard at cruising speeds, where those two Deisel engines will be running at lower RPM's and prob' using 1 gallon per mile. Gas engines are just not good when it comes to pushing heavy boats.

[@hughjarse4627]

The lambo engine idea made me laugh, his best bet is keep these two Cummins. You can make big power with them but I’d just keep as they are they should last forever (with oil in them)

[@DEBOSSGARAGE]

Lets be honest. Twin Cummins is the only way to go. I have a couple for sale. Or, if you don't want to listen to anyone speak on the boat, I have a couple two stroke Detroits available too.

[@rhkavli]

Same here. Have a Volvo-Penta MD21B. Pre-start is always oil level, bilge inspection, fuel level and engine cooling fluid level. Post start, oil pressure, and check for water flow through the exhaust. And during running, engine temp and oil pressure, like my life depended on it, which it does. At least it saves me from an embarrassing call on the VHF.

[@CrazyIvan1337]

As far as powerplants, I'm also kinda leaning towards keeping the Cummins engines. I'm sure you know that there's a significant difference between engines designed for marine duty and ones designed for automotive duty. Marine engines are engineered to be able to stay at one speed consistently, automotive engines cannot reliably do that. The cooling and drive systems are very different, as well. Do it the right way - pull both engines and refresh/refurbish the good engine, and if the knocker is beyond saving, get a replacement and refresh that one, too. You're really better off with a powertrain that almost any marina or heavy duty equipment shop can service or supply parts for, in case of emergency. Plus, with modifying different engines to fit, you run the risk of those modifications not being "seaworthy" and leaving you stranded out on the water. It's one thing when you're just farting around on a local inland lake or river, but when you're on or near the ocean and traveling along shipping channels, traversing large deep rivers, etc., the reliability factor of keeping with what works can quite literally save your life. Do some research on those Cummins mills, I'd be willing to bet you can made some upgrades to improve power and reliability. Or, gosh, at the very LEAST, look into upgrading to more modern diesel boat engines that are better all around, because there are definitely better choices than what's in there.

I agree... even if you have 2 good LAND DEISELS ... I would still go with redoing 2 MARINE deisels ((I just feel bad putting DIE in anything BOAT-ish !!!! ;) ))

[@brentspang9092]

Radbug I’ve seen diesels running off their own engine oil consume it all in a few minutes until they die. I think they ran them plenty long enough for a medium turbo seal leak to consume all of the oil.

[@ducatipaso1386]

I'm guessing stuck ring from sitting.

[@Greg....]

I agree with a slow leaking oil seal in the turbo. Its a diesil so after many hours of use at cruising speed an small amount of extra smoke wont be noticable. Especially when there is fires around making it harder to smell it. Its probably done bad things to rod bearings and maybe scored cylinder walls. But for something that size, for range and fuel economy diesiel is the go. Petrol is fine for say the 17 foot boat i have, but its a trailer boat, so going through 140 litres in a day with the 220hp 262ci v6 is fine because it goes straight back on the trailer. Its a bit of fun but, 60+ mph in a smallish boat on the water. Feels way faster then it is.

[@pork2288]

reliability IS THE NUMBER 1 THING WHEN IT COMES TO BOATS

Even with failed engine you still can run with one engine, it's slower and has less manouverability but that is not a problem on the ocean. 3. Not necessarily you will allways notice that the gauge is damaged. It can still run but show false values which probably was the case here, it would be noticed and fixed. Why so salty if you don't even have a clue what are you talking about?

You can see my wife and I and our boat in st helens. We docked right before you got there 😁 Oh and we're not that broke down looking sailboat.

Welcome to bot ownership. Don’t swap, pull both and rebuild.

[@heyhandersen5802]

pull the bad one and SCRAP it.

[@kiwistu]

"We crossed the most dangerous bar in North America"... no sign of life jackets anywhere!

[@dsSpitfiremk4]

No sign of oil pressure either!

[@maxanstine1139]

Check out the Yanmar L6Y440 engine! They have a really good power to weight ratio. Also because they are marine diesel your fuel will be cheaper and last longer. Refilling a yacht with gasoline on low mpg engines can get really expensive!

[@ru54623]

Check the Car Wizard, his boat did the same, lost the oil through the exhaust manifold.

[@bcubed55]

His was coolant through the exhaust.

[@lackofsanity9329]

It’s a common occurrence for inboard boats we just replaced the motors

[@semajniffirg230]

That boat needs radar!! Especially for travelling in smoke and fog.

[@jskidpatrol]

Yup. I knew that was a mistake when he pulled it off.

[@StreekyHippo]

@@DK640OBrianYT Ding a god amount of amateur trolling fishing with my dad. The boat has an old radar unit, but we have been very happy it had ANY Radar, the times, where we got caught out in fog or doing night sailing. Is the law to have lanterns on, but a lot of idiots don't.

[@Duif_RS6]

i stated this in his video a year ago when he took it off. Im an educated marine service engineer, so i have my experience with ships and boats. I have never facepalmed more when he stated that his radar was "outdated". Apparently according to him, you can rely only on GPS on the waters.

[@jackswisher3171]

Good video, I enjoyed it. A pre-trip and post-trip inspection is standard for any serious boater: check fluids, hoses, gauges. Then fix the broken items before making the next trip. It can prevent sudden "surprises" and save time and money. Thanks for showing us an example of what can go wrong.

[@Nuku-Nuku]

As a boater you know the first rule before setting sail. Check all your fluids before every trip. I run my engines 20 minutes before I leave the docks

[@brsrc759]

Keep the diesels! Reliable, safe, good parts availability

[@brianscott755]

Yes, I agree

[@watchjaredwork1487]

🤦🏼‍♂️ please don’t swap that boat.

[@larrysmith4918]

Brad, I've been a boat person all my life. The silver lining of your blown motor situation is that you are dealing with a beautiful and extremely sexy collectable Italian Cruiser in awesome original condition. I personally feel that regardless of how much you invest in new power, you're gonna be okay investment wise. In fact possibly the more exotic you go the better. It's not like you're dealing with some worthless Bayliner or even SeaRay for that matter. One more little thing tho, on your next adventure could you please give us some motorhead shots of of speed, tack, temps etc cuz I was very curious how she was behaving. Be safe n happy boating Larry

[@BrianNavalinsky]

When you have a piece of s boat its even more important to check your oil.

[@ruaraidhmcdonald-walker9524]

Yeah. Because 'They don't use this radar system any more.' These fools are gonna get somebody killed.

[@lordkingdragon]

You might be sending oil though the turbo and 5 gal is in the heat exchange. I had that happened to my simi.

[@kevintucker3354]

If you have a toolbox, it is easy to check the engine for actual oil pressure. If it has pressure and you keep oil in it you could run for months at 1500 rpm with the current noises it’s making...

[@CSPDesign]

Honestly as a boat guy.. you have two very solid power plants. I would definitely NOT do any weird swap because parts and adapters are going to be super had to find and could leave you stranded. If I was in your shoes, I would pull them both out and have them rebuilt. Being diesels, they can make a hell of a lot more power. When you rebuild them, head stud them, bigger injectors, better smoother turbos, and add a fuel system and that’s it man

[@jeffcivjeep7]

Swapping it would be pretty dumb.

[@lucasvanhamburg4937]

why?

[@thisthingmint250]

Lucas van hamburg because butthurt boat lovers

[@hardwurkindaddy]

@@lucasvanhamburg4937 because there is a load of power to be had in upgrading diesel parts, prop swaps and the like and still retain efficiency and reliability.

I've seen a couple of families torn apart by the financial stress of being able to say "We are going to the lake this weekend".

[@cloughiie]

All I can say is in episode 1 you removed the radar and still took the boat out, in episode 2 you wanted to use a dual anchor system, one of which was a rope(!) and this episode you bust an engine and got stranded with dodgy gauges. Sometimes owning a boat doesn’t equate to respect for the water. You need to understand what is important in a boat and why, rather than just hacking away and thinking you’re doing the right thing.

[@oohjah]

this.....

[@e36fanatics]

Ah i see.. youre new viewer of this channel.. we dont do that here

[@CrazyChemistPL]

You generally don't want to keep your fenders on deck during cruising. It is not elegant. That boat surely has a compartment you can put them in and retrieve when it comes to docking/mooring/anchoring. Same with the lines, there is a special way of coiling them so that you can literally kick them around and they won't become tangled. Check your oil daily, it is vital.

[@jonathansellier2563]

Bro you definitely can dock with one engine just take it slow and steer to compensate

[@puzer1]

...lol, this was one of the oddest things this guy claimed ...the entire reason for 2 engines is redundancy...not failure to function as a vessel...

[@edsox46]

[@revo4tecmike]

We're rebuilding some of those mlb 47s right now. They're pretty awesome

[@alienb1212]

The engine did not run out of oil...YOU ran the engine without oil. Did you even do any pre-checks on the engines before you left?

[@patrickmoodabe9728]

Great content. No sugar coating. Really positive. That’s a big deal crossing that bar - & getting to an exposed bit of coastline. I’d recommend watching Jafro’s ‘ fishing’ adventure - in terms of super high drama on the sea. Long but totally worth watching events unfold. Having sunk a boat at a marina - I can empathise. But undoubtedly you’ll turn this into a huge positive - as you do. Cheers from NZ!!

[@johntheisen7836]

I miss the random liquor reviews in sketchy hotels on road trips

[@mikaelhirni7740]

Stay diesel man a boat that size needs lots of Torque to turn big props to get it moving.

you already have the best engines rebuild the cummins then you'll know them inside and out.

[@paulbeckett1256]

8:20 one of the reasons for that radar system that got taken out..

[@kevinzunker1386]

I recommend rebuilding what you have. Those 903s are the best. The rebuild is not bad at all just get in touch with Cummins they will have everything you need. I can tell you Riva put those engines in for the reason they make that boat out perform any other boat in it's class.

Pre voyage checklist woulda been sensible would of known how low it was

[@Marko343]

Pre voyage anything would have been solid. He said it was the first time he fired the generator and also said the oil pressure gauge never worked for that motor. You wouldn't go racing in car without the oil pressure gauge working, why would go on a multiple day trip without it working on the boat.

[@travisbenson1919]

You can absolutely dock that boat on one engine, its by no means easy but it is possible. I rocked one engine on my 36' Sundancer for an entire summer. Docking in the wind SUCKED but its something you'll learn.

[@cody180sx]

Keep them plenty of parts around for them, military still uses those 6.7L cummings engines, they also rock Borg-Werner turbos. They're not hard to work on...now I'm remembering the daily checks I had to do on those things at the butt crack of dawn on the RHIBs in the military.

[@Lolidiotwatsupnow]

If you want to know fuel consumption rate bring extra 5 gallon jerry jugs with you on your next trip. Find out what your average burn is at a certain rpm, says its 10 gallons per hour at 3000 rpm. Starting with full, after an hour take 2 of the jugs and poor them into your diesel fill. This will help you know more accurately how much you're burning.

Dual turbo s2k motors. Best thing about marine engines is you can get more power out of them because you have unlimited cooling capacity. So a couple high rev high power turbo 4’s would sound savage and make everyone ask what’s powering your boat.

[@Rodems1]

The real question on the swap is what are your intentions with boat. Do you want to travel long distances with it? If so you have to go diesel, you can just build them with more power. If you only wanna do day trips and don't care about fuel effiency then do the lambo swap or gas swap! Also lastly changing the engine away from stock with devalue the boat.
