    Our rule-of-thumb is to triple the straight-line distance from the panel to the generator. Remember that up to two feet of the harness will be inside the enclosure.

The Next Gen 3.5 kW marine diesel generator makes a very reliable power source for off-grid cruising, or running air conditioning for a hot afternoon on the water. Quiet and easy to maintain, the UCM1-3.5 is a great choice for small to medium size yachts. The NextGen 3.5 may be a good replacement for a Fisher Panda 4200/4000, but is almost 10 inches wider so check your installation space.

Simple to maintain, and easy on the wallet, this is a great little genset for smaller vessels.

Please note: If you are installing on a boat that has gasoline engines for the main propulsion, you need to order with the Ignition Protection option.

Remember to never store portable gasoline containers below deck.

  1. Travis Larson, Key West

    Great Experience!
    Working with Tim at Boundless Outfitters was a great experience. I ordered a new generator. Tim kept me informed of the entire process.

  2. William Pfleeger, Gulfport, MS

    Next Gen UCM1-3.5E Marine Diesel Generator
    Light weight 3.5kw generator so was able to get it down the pier and into the engine room of my Morgan Classic 41 with the help of 3 of my pier mates and some careful planning. The install manual needs some updating but when I had questions my calls to Next Gen were picked up and got answers immediately. The little 1 cylinder Kubota started instantly on the first try. I’m amazed at how little vibration there is. Runs my 16000 btu reverse cycle ac, battery charger and microwave no problem. Purchased with the sound shield and the noise level, according to my wife, is acceptable.

    3.5kw Next Gen
    Love this genset! After tons of research and planning, we got the next gen 3.5. Runs the 16000 btu, charger, and water heater, plus fans and lights. We installed it behind our main engine in the engine room, and with the sound enclosure, it’s a low hum. I sleep better with it on than off! Make sure you plan how to get it on the boat and install it. Only took 3 of us to get inside boat with block and tackle on boom. Tim is the best too! He answers all my questions quickly. Thanks y’all!
