Introduction
6CX-530 Series (Shaftdrive)

As used on the Efficient 44

Yanmar CX Series Marine Diesel Engine
(530hp)

A powerful new force in motorboating

Featuring Yanmar's latest lightweight engine construction technology in a compact package, this power plant exhibits superb fuel efficiency and a power-to-weight ratio that makes possible a higher top speed and a longer cruising range using the same fuel tank.

The increased horsepower in this straight 6 cylinder engine is obtained from a longer stroke, along with a more aggressive turbo/intercooler and tune settings. It also features 4 valves per cylinder and an extra high pressure common rail fuel injection system.

Tha 6CX530 is supplied with the NMEA 2000 fully electronic engine control system and LCD displays providing a fully warranted and supported package from Yanmar.

Dimensions of 933mm (36.73in) high and 886mm (34.88in) wide, and with only 837kg (1845lbs.) of engine weight makes for a power installation that is lightweight indeed.

We expect the smooth power, together with the flat torque characteristics and low fuel consumption figures of the 6CX-530 will make it an outstanding choice for any fast boat. This engine is set to become the "world power plant" for the motor boat enthusiast.

Easy on the maintenance man An overall, simple-to-service design features cylinder inspection ports in the block. These allow at-a-glance checks of crankshaft and bearings and also ease maintenance work by making head removal unnecessary.
