The 6 cyl would be a really tight fit in the 23. The 260 is a marine conversion of a BMW motor. Full of electronics in a hull that always seems to have some water in it. It's a shame they had to stop...

I have a 1979 23 inboard with a Yanmar 240 and it will cruse all day at 27-28 mph and burn about 8 gph. It's a very sweet rig. It used to have a 5.7 V-8 and the diesel outperforms in every aspect.
