Westerbeke Corporation recently introduced the 7A a compact
1 cylinder engine for the small boat owner.

This 6.4 HP engine is for the boat that needs an inboard
engine, but lacks space for installation. The engine keeps
things simple with no fresh water cooling and a manual
starting crank for reliability.
