Something to ponder: The Ford Lehman diesels used in many trawlers last 10-20 thousand hours in commercial service. There are plenty of trawlers for sale with engines having been replaced at half or a quarter of that number. Just sitting is not good for engines. Due to Covid issues and my wife being hurt in a car accident I don’t think I have put more than maybe 25 hours on my engine this year ☹ A more typical year is over 100.
