23 IB - Anyone Running a Diesel?

[John3325]

As I lay out plans for my 23 IB I am curious, does anyone on the site have a diesel that they run in one of these straight inboard hulls?

Boatyard I do work for always is taking in salvage jobs and junkers, so you never know if they get something in.....

I would imagine an inline 4 yanmar would be an awesome match in this hull, anyone have some experience/data they'd like to share?

From talking with a few people, their take is for how well you can get the hull to perform with a gas inboard setup, the Return on Investment is not there unless you put hundreds of hours on it every season (commercial use). This prompted me to see what you all think.
