Lombardini Engines

Small Engines for Big Days Afloat

Lombardini marine diesel engines are the small, sensible choice for sailboats, compact cruisers and light workboats. The range starts at 11 hp and climbs to 74 hp, so even a modest hull has a fitting match. Most listings arrive with a gearbox or saildrive already included, which saves a lot of chasing around for parts.

Four Size Bands

• 11 to 18 hp: backup power for small sailboats that mostly live under sail
• 27 to 35 hp: dependable motoring for family cruisers and larger sailing yachts
• 40 to 56 hp: a stronger push for heavier cruisers and working boats
• 74 hp: the strongest option, for the largest hulls in the group

Gearbox or Saildrive?

• A gearbox package is the traditional choice, with a shaft carrying the propeller out through the hull
• A saildrive sits through the bottom of the hull like a small leg, offered in the four smallest sizes

Quick Checks Before You Order

• Measure the space, because small engines still need room to be reached
• Think about weight, because a heavier hull needs the next size up

Getting Started

Small engines are easy to size once the boat is described. Send the length, weight and whether it sails or motors most days to Engine-Car sp. z o.o., and get matched with the right package. A few details now can save a costly mismatch later.
