This engine has been sold.
I has a used but very good condition Westerbeke W13 diesel engine for sale. I am selling it as a "parts" engine but only because I have not 100% run through the engine. I had planned to, but it would have added about 1k to the price in time & materials and quite frankly I just don't have the time so I am selling it for what I have into it.. It is just collecting dust in my shop and deserves a good home.
It was running perfectly when taken out of the vessel but the owner, a wealthy guy from out of state, decided he just wanted a new motor. No real reason, just wanted a new motor, for his piece of mind.
These are great running little Mitsubishi based diesel engines. Repower for CHEAP or just grab a spare engine and have thousands of dollars in spare parts to keep your W13 running for years. Having as spare engine is a good way to avoid the 10k re-power surprise!!
This motor has been professionally maintained and has many recent parts including 4 recent motor mounts, a recent fuel pump etc.. As far as I know everything works fine. The engine is actually quite clean for her age and pretty darn rust free. The engine has a Hurth HBW-50 gear box which alone is worth about $1000.00 used, and they no longer make it..
I am asking $1350.00 (FIRM) for the engine & gear...
