Can you suggest where I might find a used diesel outboard motor?

Sorry,this has got to be a very rare bird. In over 40 years of boating I have never seen one and don't know of any major outboard manufacture that makes one.

Further research I found a couple of mfgs. But wasn't able to come up with a used source. Yanmar has built two small light weigh direct injected water cooled 4 cycle diesel outboards. A 27 hp 3 cyclinder model weighing in at 207 lbs. Also 36 hp model that weighs 256 lbs. You can check them out at www.yanmar.nl/pm_out.ntm Found a Yanmar dealer in Peniscola, Florida Contact Brown Marine Service at www.brownmarine.com/ Also located another diesel mfg. China Diesel. Reach them at http:/www.chinadiesel.com/mrn/diesel/outboard.htm or email them at dieseloutboard@chinadiesel.com Good luck hope this will be a help.
