Diesel Generator for 28TE
Has anyone installed a diesel generator on a 28TE, recently? If so, please say the make, model and if you are satisfied. I saw a picture of an older one and it looked as if it were installed in the starboard hatch next to the engine box. Thank you. Also, please state the approximate cost.

Re: Diesel Generator for 28TE
I put in a used Mase 2.5, it is a single cylinder yanmar. Wasn't easy but certainly doable, mine is in front of the engine. Has enough power to run everything including water heater but no extra 
. The hardest part is finding something that will fit down that hatch, and then of course maintenance is an issue. I'll put some pics up...

Unfortunately I don't have a great pic of the install on my phone, you can see the lift muffler and raw water feed and the transfer switch installed in the cabin.

Re: Diesel Generator for 28TE
I installed a Fischer Panda in a 28 TE engine box. It was tight, as I remember we had to remove some of the exhaust to get it in. It was a 4 kw, ran and worked like a champ.
I've sold the boat and don't have the pictures any more. My advice; if you can run your A/C and make coffee in the AM, that's what I would do.
Remember, it's not just getting it in there but also being able to service it.
Good luck to Ya!
