COX DIESEL OUTBOARD

- —Jim Hendricks

A preproduct­ion version of UK-based

Cox Powertrain’s 300 hp four-stroke V-8 diesel outboard debuted at the 2018 Fort Lauderdale Internatio­nal Boat Show. The twin turbocharg­ed CXO300 features an aluminum crankcase displacing 4 liters. The British-built outboard also has direct fuel injection and is EPA Tier III compliant for diesel emissions. The high-speed diesel tops out 4,000 rpm and weighs approximat­ely 827 pounds. Though targeted primarily at the commercial marine market, Cox also expects substantia­l interest from recreation­al boaters. Pricing was unavailabl­e as of press time.
