Beta Marine Engines sold and installed at Emerald Marine

Emerald Marine is now a Beta Marine dealer.  Betas are Kubota diesel engines fitted with heat exchangers and a choice of reduction gears that provide a wide variety options for vessel re-powering.
Kubota engines are used in many applications, such as power generation and refrigeration, through out the world. They are very reliable and parts are easily available.

To successfully move old out and new in we employ a variety of methods and use various equipment that are handy in multiple situations. Our shop has an overhead beam with a trolly and electric chain fall for  boats inside. We use a crane for outside work.

This Beta 14 is in a 18' strip built Poulsbo boat.  It consumes a less than a pint per hour at 1800 rpm while making 4.5 knots.

Inside Windsong's engine compartment quiet and heat producing

We have successfully installed five Beta Marine engines including one in our company flagship "Windsong" and in a Stonehorse sloop that belonged to business partner James McMullen.

Max prop, nice addition!

For winter cruising heat Andy installed a  radiator and fan  that recycles the energy off the engine and blows it into the cabin.  It's a lovely feature for cooler weather boating.

Each install is different and has it's own challenges unique to each vessel.  Trouble shooting and adjustments typically are made in these areas: shaft, fuel system, engine mounting, control panel and electronics.  Our team works to make the transition and installation as easy as possible.

Slocum 42', Singularity

Beta 50

This engine replaced a Perkins 4018. It is more powerful, smoother and gained lots of space in the engine compartment which, together with all the engine's service points being easily accessible,

makes for a worthwhile upgrade. "Singularity"was in the yard for a major overhaul, including new teak decks, in preparation for extended cruising.

Our next project will be installing a Beta 35 in Symra a  42' Monk Sloop

Customer feedback….. quick reliable start up, simple control panel, smooth running and powerful, pleasing red color, easy maintenance.
