Challenging Repower for Savannah Pilots
The Savannah Pilots Association in Georgia USA have been operating their 57 aluminium pilot boat since 1984. Built at Louisianas Breaux Bay Craft, the boat has served them well. When a repower was recently necessary, the Association chose a pair of Cummins KTA19 M4 engines producing 700hp each at 2,100rpm in a medium continuous duty rating.
