For operators comparing a Yanmar 6CH-DTE3 210HP engine for sale, MSS Motorsports UG welcomes enquiries for availability, engine condition and complete propulsion-package pricing. Specify the required duty rating and transmission so the quotation reflects your vessel’s needs.
Consider this model for a fishing-boat, workboat or transport-vessel replacement project where its approved operating duty and propulsion characteristics suit the application.
210HP M Rating: Match the Engine to the Working Day
The 210HP specification is the M rating. Yanmar’s archived documentation also lists an L-rated output of 169 kW / 230 metric HP at 2,600 rpm. yanmar.fi
M denotes medium duty, while L denotes light duty. These ratings have operating limits governing matters such as annual running hours, load and time at rated power. Confirm the conditions applicable to the supplied engine. www.yanmar.com
Before requesting a package, establish the expected daily operating hours, annual usage and periods of high engine load. Your installer can then assess the rating together with the vessel’s propeller demand.
For the alternative rating, compare the Yanmar 6CH-DTE3 230HP L-rating listing.

Yanmar CHE(3) Engineering and Service Access
Yanmar’s original CHE(3) brochure describes a monoblock cylinder structure, forged crankshaft and connecting rods, and inspection openings in the six-cylinder block. These provide useful reference points when discussing the engine’s construction and maintenance access with your installer. frenchmarine.com
For an existing vessel, check that the proposed installation leaves space around filters, pumps, belts and inspection points. Request available service records covering the fuel system, turbocharger, intercooler and cooling components.
Consult the Yanmar CHE(3) Series manufacturer brochure, preserved in a marine supplier’s technical archive, for original model specifications and equipment references.
Hydraulic Marine Gearbox and Shaft-Drive Integration
The original Yanmar brochure documents a YX-71 hydraulic wet multi-disc marine gearbox for the 6CH-DTE3. Confirm the actual gearbox model, reduction ratio, output coupling and shaft-rotation arrangement on the offered package. frenchmarine.com
For a repower assessment, provide:
- Existing engine and gearbox identification plates.
- Vessel make, model, displacement and intended operating duty.
- Gearbox ratio, propeller dimensions and shaft details.
- Engine-bed measurements, mount positions and shaft height.
- Available installation space and service clearances.
- Exhaust, cooling-water, fuel, electrical and control connections.
Use the drawing for the selected engine and gearbox combination. Account for the complete package weight when assessing installation and handling requirements.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is 210HP the M rating or the L rating?
Yanmar’s archived documentation assigns 210 MHP at 2,550 rpm to the M rating. The separate L rating is 230 MHP at 2,600 rpm.
Does M rating mean unrestricted continuous operation?
No. Medium duty has defined operating limits. Confirm the engine-specific requirements against the vessel’s annual hours, loading pattern and time at rated output.
Does the engine include a gearbox and manufacturer warranty?
Inclusions and warranty depend on the offered unit and supply arrangement. Request an itemised equipment list and written warranty terms.
