Suzuki DF6 Aux Engine Performs Superbly!

Today saw the first trials of the new Suzuki DF6 auxiliary engine and it performed superbly!

Although it is still in the run in period I can report that at 1/2 throttle it gave a solid 5kts in a calm sea. Once it is fully run in and serviced I will report again on how it performs at normal operating power… I suspect it will be quite adequate for the purpose.

I love these little engines. I have a DF2.5 for my dinghy and it is lightweight and very quiet… if you are in the market for a new outboard you must take a serious look at the Suzuki range.
