A friend of mine bought a boat that was in dry dock for about 5 years. The diesel Volvo Penta MD2030 was installed just before dry dock so had very little time on it. Last spring the boat finally sailed and the engine fired up fine and ran great until about a month before dry dock for the winter. The engine starts with no apparent problems but blows lots of white smoke from start to shut down and lacks any kind of power to propel the vessel at any speed. No unusual noises are coming from the engine either. I have searched some of the threads so will start with the injectors but with no starting problems or fuel in the water I am not expecting an immediate solution.
