- Owner of a 22 m motor yacht undergoing refit
Overview
A yacht owner refitting a 22 m motor yacht wanted quieter, more reliable propulsion with modern instrumentation, keeping the existing shaft lines and propellers.
Challenge
The new engines had to fit the existing beds and align with the shaft lines, while the gearboxes needed a ratio close to the originals to keep the propellers. Cosmetic finish and low vibration mattered more than in commercial work.
Solution
| Item | Model | Qty |
|---|---|---|
| Marine diesel engine | Cummins 6CTA8.3-M205, 205 HP class, inline 6 | 2 |
| Marine gearbox | Advance 300 series, 750–2500 rpm input | 2 |
| Instrumentation | Twin-station engine displays, alarm panels, wiring | 2 sets |
| Accessories | Soft mounts, flexible couplings, wet exhaust components, sea-water strainers | 2 sets |
Scope of supply
Dimensional check against refit-yard drawings, engine-gearbox matching, factory test with report, protective crating, air-ride truck to the yard via Jebel Ali, and commissioning support during sea trials.
Outcome
The yacht completed sea trials with lower noise levels and stable temperatures at cruise. The refit yard has since sourced a further propulsion package through MARS for another client.
Customer names are withheld; the case describes a typical supply scope built from products in the MARS catalogue.
