Yanmar America has just completed installations of powerful and fuel-efficient marine diesel engines in two such vessels: the Mattie & Ayva and the KGB both based out of Bucks Harbor, Maine. The Mattie & Ayva is a new vessel while the KGB has been given a new lease on life with a Yanmar repower. Both vessels are powered by the Yanmar 6AYEM-ET common-rail, marine diesel engine.
