Need some Westerbeke W50 specs

sord · **Posted:** 04 Jan 2009 12:32

Does anyone have any idea about the continuous rated output at what rpm and the maximum rated output at what rpms for the Westerbeke W50 in a 1981 Tartan37? I can find a rated output of 45Hp at 3200 rpm but have no idea if this is max or continuous. I am buying a new prop this spring.

I am also looking for a parts list. I posted the manual but need the parts list also.

Thanks in advance.

The w50 develops 41 hp. continuous at 3200 rpm. The 45 hp rating is maximum. I've attached the sale brochure that has the engine's performance curve. If you can't down load the file, you can get it at the Westerbeke website.

Thank You.

Anybody have a copy of the parts list? It would be handy to have on the Useful links page

I have a hard copy, but I rarely use it. I go to the following Torrenson Marine Web Page:

I have the official Westerbeke w50 parts manual and parts list in PDF format for anyone who would like to have it. Send me an e-mail address with the request and I will send it. Also, I will post it here if I had any hint of how....Any one know?

Oh, I also have the recommended maintenance schedule that I can send along (or post, see above).

Best wishes to you folks in colder climes...
