SPARE PARTS
Since a possibility exists in which the engine may need to be serviced at sea or while in a port other than
your home port, certain spare parts should be kept on board to help minimize delays in your voyage.
Please refer to your engine's Parts List for part numbers when ordering spare parts. Listed below are those
spare parts that should be carried on board at all times.
1. An
impeller kit.
2. A fuel system hardware kit.
3. A secondary fuel filter element.
4. A water pump belt.
5. Hose clamps.
6. A spare oil filter with a spare quart of diesel service engine oil along with a gallon of premixed
antifreeze.
7. A few zinc anodes and heat exchanger end plate gaskets.

board (in addition to those listed above) especially if the vessel is to be taken on long ocean voyages.

The spare parts listed directly above are those we recommel1d be carried on board during long ocean

ocean voyages as to what spare parts they carried on board and what parts were needed at specific times
on the voyage. From the list provided directly above and from these inquiries, you can determine what
spare parts may be needed. In addition, if you are planning a long ocean voyage, consult your Westerbeke
dealer for a listing of the Westerbeke dealers located on your route.
