Marine Diesel Engines/Судовые дизельные двигатели

Издание на английском языке
For very good reasons, the diesel engine is now the overwhelming choice for sailboat auxiliaries, and it is becoming more popular in sportfishing boats, high-performance cruisers, and large sportboats. Diesels have an unrivaled record of reliability in the marine environment; they have better fuel economy than gasoline engines; they are more efficient at light and full loads; they emit fewer harmful exhaust pollutants; they last longer; and they are inherently safer because diesel fuel is less volatile than gasoline.
