In Response To: Alum. Block/Head Diesel (Jim Kilbane)

A boat owner,located across from me just purchased a new 25'/26' Stieger Craft this fall with, I believe, The same new Volvo diesel IO you have mentioned [new on the market], with the twin duraprop. When he puts it in gear at idle it jumps, between low speed diesel torque, two counter rotating props and little real weight it appears to create a low speed handling problem.
