Designed and built in Britain? Well...you better bring five gallons of oil, a full tool kit, an engine manual, an emergency radio, emergency rations etc....

Tony Rich - 5 years ago

Austin, Morris, MG, Land Rover, Rover, Triumph, Worsley, Lanchester, Jaguar, British Leyland. Mmm thinks I will keep my OMC V6 250 HP Looper. And that is heavier than my older 235 Crossflow's. 35, 000-00 GBP? Right, ETEC, Mercury, Yamaha or even the old OMC Looper V8's. Buy's lots of fuel and you don't have to put up with carcinogenic diesel fumes, soot, diesel particulate filters and check engine lights with associated thousands to replace DPF's etc. Work has Volkswagen Caddy diesel "death tubes". I refuse to refuel them. Dirty filthy diesel, froths, spits back on refuelling and just makes a real mess on you and the driveway. Don't have that with Gasoline. Even with 40:1 premix in the Victa lawnmower. Sorry, yes common fuel in diesel for perhaps the military, but in reality no, not for me. Refine diesel/kerosene for turbines.

bryan nonya - 5 years ago

To bad the customer service is lacking, its a great idea.

John Smith - 5 years ago

Brits can't build anything reliable. A main factor in outboard design is weight. Evinrude 300hp = 537lbs this 300hp Cox diesel = 772lbs. Enough said.

Tom Bulger - 5 years ago

So, the other three occupants have on all this safety gear including helmets but the 4th, the person talking in this video, has nothing. So far its smoke and mirrors.

Derek Joffrion - 5 years ago

So it cost more money, goes slower and is louder. Sign me up, i defiantly want to spend more money for less performance. Oh wait it's British so it must be more refined.. Maybe they should have touched more on fuel economy... Might have actually given a reason to consider something like this instead of pointing out how the gas powered 350 is superior. Lol, now that's how you market a new product for success. Let's not show them how it's better, let's show them how it's inferior, cost more but it's British so it's more refined.. Fucking jack ass.

Old Mate Scano - 5 years ago

The only thing I could see missing in this video was a large length of rope. That diesel outboard would make an awesome anchor at 300kg’s!. Waste of time and development $, developing a hybrid outboard motor would make far more sense.

Old Mate Scano - 5 years ago

StabyMcStabsFace
Jeeze, i dunno, perhaps have half petrol half electric so you use less fuel? Or did you just want to burn as much diesel as possible and pollute the water even more.

StabyMcStabsFace - 5 years ago

Hybrid for what? There's no braking, so what do you plan on doing with the electric portion?

ivan fitch - 5 years ago

Not much louder than a gas four stroke? It's the first boat I have seen with a noise screen !

It's not a noise screen, it's a spoiler to keep the rear planted for maximum traction.

That said, most all state and fed owend lakes these days frown on and some refuse to allow 2 stroke motors in the water. Reason!
Oil in the exhaust.

Charles Henley - 5 years ago

He said £35,000? Which is $45,000 for a 300hp outboard!! A little pricey. Other than fuel economy what would be the advantage over gas? Dependability? Longevity? I’m intrigued but mildly so.

shingnosis - 5 years ago

It's fucking noisy, which is typical for diesel compared to petrol. And unlike petrol it's not a nice noise either, it's a hard fatiguing noise. Biggest issue will be to dampened, isolate and resonate out that noise. They need to work on that for sure.

Nicholas Christophorou - 5 years ago

Guys just give it up, we are going electric from now on, thats the future...

cjeam - 5 years ago

Justin Stanley Your figures are out of date. The cheapest form of energy generation is now onshore wind, then I think it’s solar. In some cases building new onshore wind farms have been calculated as being cheaper than keeping old coal power stations going (which is more due to how expensive it is to continue to run an old coal power station than anything else).
Indeed it’ll probably take a while for this to end up in boats though, because batteries are heavy.

Nicholas Christophorou - 5 years ago

@Justin Stanley Explain this to Caravans with sun panels and jell baterries all over Greece and sailboats too... When electric bikes cars boats start racing you'll see...

Justin Stanley - 5 years ago

Free?! Those are the most expensive form of energy production we have. Forget the fact that we have no way, even theoretically, to store enough energy to power an outboard motor, for any length of time, natural gas and nuclear are probably the most cost effective way to create electricity moving forward for the next several decades.

Nicholas Christophorou - 5 years ago

@Niklas Heikinheimo Free energy from the sun and wind...

Niklas Heikinheimo - 5 years ago

@Nicholas Christophorou Why is electric the future?

Nicholas Christophorou - 5 years ago

@Justin Stanley For now... The FUTURE as i said is electric motor...

Justin Stanley - 5 years ago

@Nicholas Christophorou No, it really won't. The math is pretty simple. Using current high end battery tech from Tesla of 260 wh/kg, you would need a battery that weighed over 12000 Lbs to push a CC with twin 300s at 75% power for 4 hours. You would need to increase the energy density of current tech to 14X what is is before it would come anywhere near competitive with a fuel based motor. Right now they don't even know of a chemistry type that could do that theoretically. You would need some type of fuel cell that runs off either hydrogen or some other type of solid oxide fuel cell. It would be nice to have electric outboards in a recreational fishing boat, but I doubt we will see it in our lifetimes.

Nicholas Christophorou - 5 years ago

@Justin Stanley Racing electric will show that.. Have a beer...

Justin Stanley - 5 years ago

Do you know of some super special, super secret battery that has 20 times the energy density of anything currently on the market?! If not, sit down....you're drunk...

Yeah right, what ever you say.
Multi-fuel outboards have been around along time.

Chad Moyer - 5 years ago

Sorry but gas 2 stroke engines are king. Period...

cjeam - 5 years ago

Bill Allen Yeah ok weight but don’t have to premix, generally better fuel economy and burns cleaner both smell wise and fuel into the water wise. And what’re the maintenance differences really?

cjeam - 5 years ago

Who doesn’t have a 4 stroke these days? Far better.

Marcus Young - 5 years ago

Maybe on small boats

OffroadCanadian - 5 years ago

Chad Moyer you are not wrong 2 stroke is very light and good power

James Young - 5 years ago

I don't think that these outboards were designed for the consumer market, more commercial, super/mega Yachts, military, commercial sportfishing boats. COX may found a hole in the market and as mentioned below in the comments is there a big military contract at the end of it?

Bill Walker - 5 years ago

This is what happens when militaries ask for a quiet, powerful diesel outboard and cost is no object.

cjeam - 5 years ago

John Buick Huh. That’s interesting. Maybe it’s because people want the ability to trailer boats between lakes so outboards are more common. We don’t have a huge number of inland lakes in the UK only a few that are isolated and big enough to be worth marinas. There are the canals and rivers and then the sea, so the marinas there will have diesel for all the boats with inboards that visit.

John Buick - 5 years ago

@cjeam Well in Canada where there are tens of thousands of lakes most the marinas sell gas. Sure, you go to a big ocean based marina that has commercial fishing boats tied up you will obviously find diesel but nobody with outboards buys diesel.

John Buick - 5 years ago

@cjeam Oh yeah, that's right, just look at all those diesel outboards running around out there. Every outboard manufacturer makes two cycles. Just go to there website and see. I know a guy that is a professional outboard motor mechanic and he hates 4 cycles. They're a pain in the ass to change oil and are heavier than two cycles. Go take a new Evinrude for a spin and you will see. Greater power to weight ratio than any 4 cycle.

cjeam - 5 years ago

John Buick Where are you from? If a marina sells fuel at all it sells diesel, it’s petrol that they don’t always have here. And I can’t remember the last time I saw a new 2 stroke outboard for sale.

John Buick - 5 years ago

Should have gone for a Seven Marine then. Quite and a shit ton of power. For 300 HP just get a gas machine. They are quiet, powerful and you don't have the smell of diesel all the time. Even the modern 2 strokes are quiet. I guess if you are trying to get mileage then go diesel but not many marinas sell diesel.

brian mcbride - 5 years ago

phoenix love off-road diesel is already used in diesel marine engines in the US? If so, The change I could see would be outlawing it, like the US does now with on road vehicles.

phoenix love - 5 years ago

@brian mcbride given that it's already used in diesel boats here I don't see what's gonna change?

brian mcbride - 5 years ago

phoenix love correct. My point is, just like you can’t run the red stuff in your daily driver with a diesel. You can bet the US government will not allow you to run the red in these marine engines either.

Will Riley oh let me get you the number to my old employer, since you are an expert on this

Will Riley - 5 years ago

Martin Andersson I'm not saying the D5 is necessary perfect as is. Some updates definitely could be made it is a pretty old engine design at this point.

Will Riley - 5 years ago

Martin Andersson Yeah but look at some of the engines OXE uses. Aluminum is key to outboards less weight. It's all about marineizing (not sure correct spelling) Meaning brass cooling ports etc. Its just got to stay cool and have good oil pressure also proper cams.

Martin Andersson - 5 years ago

Will Riley first of all
I have worked as a engine product developer at Volvo Penta
The D5 is not a suitable base engine
It’s a full aluminium engine that started it’s life as a automotive engine
An engine that has a average load of 35% during it’s cycle
A marine engine has 90-100% load factory
So it’s not just a matter of chipping the engine, so much more then that
The D3 is the worst that have left VP since the MD21 indenor

Will Riley - 5 years ago

@Martin Andersson I disagree the D5 is compact enough to be mounted as an outboard and chipped can make plenty of torque. However Volvo Penta invested heavily in Seven Marine for outboards

Martin Andersson - 5 years ago

Hahaha the inboard version of it is a disaster

Daniel Sundberg - 5 years ago

I have operated the mercury diesel outboard that produces 195Hp and were fitted in a twin setup on a similar sized boat. They were extremely quiet, quieter than Cox from what i could tell in the video, certainly did not have to raise our voices. Which is amazing as it was 2 stroke. The engine is based off the optima 200Hp block, 10:1, spark plugs to aid in detonation and emissions. These engines would push a 4 ton 7.6mt rhib at 40+ knots very quietly as quiet as any modern 4 stroke petrol i have driven. Only issue i had was the very clunky dog clutch gears shifting fwd to rev, my job was a lot of manoeuvring when not WOT but had no issue with the diesel at all. Fuel consumption was still thirsty at WOT, both engines would suck the 420lt tank in about 3 hrs but could manouver all day and only use 10lt

Stuart Price - 5 years ago

Developing a 300hp ELECTRIC outboard would be the way to go. Hard to see why anyone would spend money developing a diesel outboard at the moment. It's like developing a new betamax video recorder.

Juha Tuomala - 5 years ago

Viking84 stuart didn’t think where he would get that electricity. Just an electric motor dream.

Svein Hanssen - 5 years ago

Problem is you can't go very far with an electric outboard. And it would be even more expensive. Everyone wants a diesel outboard like this.

Viking84 - 5 years ago

There would have to be a huge revolution in battery capacity to be able to run a boat at higher speeds with an electric outboard. It is the future though, no doubt, but I would guess it is at the very least 10 years away from being reality which is a shame as electric motors are awesome!

ririshow - 5 years ago

What is the point of developing a new diesel engine when diesel engines are increasingly being banned?

Alexandros Retsinas - 5 years ago

@ririshow 100% nonsense

ririshow - 5 years ago

Well... that remains to be seen! As less and less cars need diesel, demand for diesel will fall. Consequently the price will increase and diesel will become more difficult to source.

arotom - 5 years ago

Dave M - 5 years ago

From the early news on other diesel outboards compared to gas outboards of comparable power is that the diesels are about 60% heavier. And about 125% pricier.

Svein Hanssen - 5 years ago

This engine is about 60 kg heavier than a comparable petrol outboard (except the new Mercury V8). And a lot more torque. But it's not for everyone.

It's a prototype for gods sake

@Motor Boat & Yachting yes, that certainly makes it ok to have no meaningful info in the vid...

something wrong here. every test i've seen is on a rib...?

mike force - 5 years ago

@bigboatben ship refers to a size/weight, dumbakk. not whether it is "commercial" or "military". i didn't bother reading the rest of your mess, as you are clearly uneducated, yet egotistical....like most of the society you pretend to despise...

@John Crowley hi phaggot grammar knotsie! no one asked you. now you know, so you can sit on a bod and squirm. you are dismissed.

John Crowley - 5 years ago

@mike force Use capitals at the beginning of sentences to avoid looking like a complete fucking cretin.

bigboatben - 5 years ago

mike force “ships” = commercial or military. “Yachts” = private sector. I’ve been talking to the manufactures of Diesel outboards at international boat shows for the last three years. The point I made is one of the first points they bring up when you talk to them.

mike force - 5 years ago

@bigboatben nope. they claim they are for commercial use. so much for your reading comprehension and fact-finding skills!

bigboatben - 5 years ago

These outboards are marketed for use on tenders aboard ships & large yachts. Large vessels have plenty of diesel aboard and prefer fuel commonality.

@Alexandros Retsinas any engine will perform better on a lighter boat. that is my point. go to any marina...how many ribs are there, compared to other styles? and so, it makes no sense they ONLY show these outboards on ribs AND don't give any real performance/economy numbers...

Alexandros Retsinas - 5 years ago

RIb is lighter so the effect of the Diesel's extra weight would be bigger. I think on a full polyester boat will be a better fit

@mike force Apologies Mike, Let me ask again. In your opinion, what are the disadvantages of testing an outboard motor on a Rigid Inflatable Boat?

mike force - 5 years ago

@DMC you don't have critical thinking skills. you greatly overestimate yourself. being a contrarian is not "intelligent". also, you can't even write a simple sentence correctly.

DMC - 5 years ago

@mike force Answering my Q with another Q is not answering the question. Why wouldn't you use a RIB to test an outboard motor? Critical thinking is what made ask you to qualify your statement.

DaBrute - 5 years ago

Agreed. Would love to see one on a center console

mike force - 5 years ago

@DMC why would you always test diesel outboards on ribs? learn critical thinking. why is someone telling me this, what AREN'T they telling me...

DMC - 5 years ago

Why wouldn't you use a RIB?

Would love to see a head on comparison between the COX and the OXE

Svein Hanssen - 5 years ago

There is no comparison.

Lee Seaman - 5 years ago

Game changer indeed. Well done Cox!

I’d say that outboard is perfect if you really love the sound of a ford transit going 110 down the motorway

I could not handle trolling with a 2 stroke at 1.7mph. Huffing diesel exhaust for 8 hours would be just as bad. Trolling with a 140hp 4 stroke purring away is great.

Svein Hanssen - 5 years ago

There is now V8 Transit

Rob Colclough - 5 years ago

Hahaha a little bit louder?

And want to produce cancer forming gases! Will they also ban new boat diesels in 2025, like cars?
