Anyone have any info on this engine? I always thought this vintage Hatteras always had DD's in them. It's a boat listed for sale I was considering driving some time to take a look at. The surveyor I've used in the past said he wasn't familiar with the Cat D334. (He's been surveying for nearly 20 years.) Was this a special option or a likely re-power?

Thought/hoping someone in here might know. I know the older Detroit motors have their quirks - a bit loud/oily, but overall simple/old/reliable technology. No idea on the CatD334 with app. 3300 hours on the clock. Is the boat still worth considering?

Thanks!
