VETUS DIESEL ENGINES

Vetus consider requirements such as environmental protection, reliability, durability, fuel efficiency and low-vibration operation absolutely essential. In all cases, the smallest possible installation sizes, excellent power-to-weight-ratio and a good accessibility of serviceable components are central features. All Vetus Diesel engines are fresh-water cooled and may also be supplied for keel-cooling.

The Vetus Diesel range includes two cylinder engines (11hp, 13hp, 16hp), a three cylinder engine (27hp) and four cylinder engines (33hp, 42hp, 52hp, 65hp, 80hp). The new VF Series engines (140hp, 170hp, 220hp, 250hp) are ultramodern and compact and designed for conventional or sterndrive applications.

The Vetus Deutz range features four cylinder engines (80hp, 114hp, 140hp) and six cylinder engines (170hp, 210hp, 231hp, 286hp).

For further details about control panels supplied as standard, please check the notes at the bottom of the page, which also include further guidance about the information presented. We are able to offer the full package for fitting out, including exhaust systems, control equipment, water intakes and steering systems - see the Vetus Boat Equipment pages or contact us for further details.

Two Cylinder Engines

Three two-cylinder engines feature in the Vetus line-up. The M2.C5 is an 11hp unit which is lower revving (3000rpm) and quieter then other engines in its class. The 13hp M2.D5 and 16hp M2.06 are similarly market-leading engines with its twin cylinders for smoother running, indirect cooling for long life and a Mitsubishi base engine for dependability... is it worth scrimping when you can buy Vetus superiority?
