Vetus marine engines are compact diesel propulsion systems designed for sailing yachts, cabin cruisers, canal boats, launches and heavy-displacement craft. The range is supported by VETUS controls, exhaust systems, fuel equipment and other installation components, allowing a complete propulsion package to be planned around the engine.
The M-Line covers smaller installations from 12 to 52 hp. Models include the two-cylinder Vetus M2.13 and M2.18, the three-cylinder Vetus M3.29, and four-cylinder options such as the M4.35, M4.45 and M4.56. Shaft-drive and saildrive-compatible versions are available for applicable models.
More demanding applications can be matched with the Vetus VH4.65 or Vetus VH4.80 from the H-Line, producing 65 and 80 hp respectively. For long-distance cruising and heavier displacement vessels, the common-rail D-Line provides ratings of 122, 140, 170 and 210 hp.
Features vary by engine family but may include freshwater cooling, water-cooled top covers, self-bleeding fuel systems, accessible service points and high-output marine alternators. The M-Line and D-Line are also approved for HVO fuel, subject to the applicable fuel specification and manufacturer guidance.
A quotation for a Vetus marine engine for sale should confirm the exact model, horsepower, gearbox or saildrive and reduction ratio. It should also state the control panel, wiring loom, engine mounts, cooling and exhaust equipment, fuel-system components, warranty terms, availability of genuine Vetus engine parts, lead time and delivery conditions.
