Volvo Penta has provided the Denizer with its most powerful diesel engine --a Volvo Penta D65A MT which has a strong performance already at low rpms and is well suited for a fishing boat weighing more than 240 tons.

The Denizer is a new tuna fishing vessel built at the Basaran Gemi Sanayi shipyard in Trabzon, Turkey and work in the Aegean Sea, Black Sea and the Mediterranean. Later this year a sister ship to Denizer will be launched with the same type of Volvo Penta power.

The Volvo Penta D65A MT engine is equipped with a powerful turbocharger, an efficient charge-air cooler and a precisely controlled fuel injection system. This ensures optimum fuel efficiency as well as solid operational reliability.

The Volvo Penta D65A MT is a 12-cylinder, 65-liter marine diesel engine. It delivers strong torque and develops full power already at about 1640 rpms. This provides major benefits for fishing boats as well as tugs and other displacement vessels requiring high power at low rpms.

It is available in three power ranges for propulsion and as a complete marine generator.
