The Detroit's are 3 times better than any Cummins . I have been running 71 series Detroits in my commercial fishing boat for 38 years and they will outlast 3 Cummins engines of the same power . when the Cummins of the fleet are tied to the wharf for repairs the Detroits are out making money .

[@sethbarnes7608]

Ahhh, the good ol' Detroit diesel. If there isn't any oil under it, there's no oil in it!😂

[@johnbecker5213]

shame , what a waste of money, lower your rpm by 2-300 change pitch on prop and your fuel economy will be as good or better than crappy cummins, and did you consider your righting moment, less weight and you will be bobbing around a like cork , dd is so much better than cummins

[@jakleo337]

Driptroit diesels. The joke is if you put a picture of a DD on the wall there would be oil on the floor underneath it in the morning.

[@ryanehlis426]

The 12v 71 Detroit is such a cool engine, back in the day that was the ultimate big boy power plant in a semi tractor 😊

[@Rs500ybd]

Fantastic Big Efforts deserve Reward I Hope you enjoyed your Pub..

[@johntuminello5206]

Hope he got RPM the same as the old revving Detroit.

You now have the ideal time to build the wine cellar that you always wanted...

[@mikedobbs1575]

Nobody died! 👍

[@donmunro144]

No better place for a Detroit than on a boat. They make one hell of an anchor.

[@jeremystory6981]

Amazing effort,, you can't stop no matter what's in your way well then from both of you

[@arczealdesigns9512]

That was awesome! Great work! You guys earned that night at the pub!

[@killerkane1957]

Just stumbled across your channel. I’m sure you know what you are doing. I’m seriously questioning the engine swap. The Detroits are simply the best in my experience. Never in water but I’ve pumped a lot of it. With Detroit. Great work and I’m sure things will be fine. Cummins will move your boat just like they would pump my water.

O YERRRRRR SCREAMING JIMMMMYS . GOTA LOVE EM

[@mrmiscast]

Looking good... What a job... Can't wait til the next video...

[@olof.aolsson8441]

Is it a Steel hull? If it is, why not cut a hole in The side of The hull instead?

[@JustinTurnerman]

Nice work. Now to put it all back to together 💪

[@johnschieffelin3226]

Amazing. Heavy duty stuff for sure.

[@scottyvallance]

Amazing! Well done.

[@claudeross126]

So much respect for both of you.
