A club member has a 2012 Tartan 37 with a 3 cylinder Yanmar diesel ....I
don't know the transmission type....he bought it in 2014 ....got a good
deal then on price....the engine now has 200 hours but just after he
launched 6 weeks ago, his transmission failed....marine diesel
contractors (3 of them) said transmission could not be repaired.....so
he needs a new transmission.
Wrong, he is informed by all 3 diesel mechanics and Yanmar, that there
is not a transmission available to match his Yanmar engine. So guess
what, he has to buy a new engine and transmission.
Has anyone ever heard of this where there is no transmission to fit a
Yanmar?
