thats kinda what I figured, I was hoping to burn less and go faster than what
I have now (34 Silverton Aft Cabin with twin gas 7.4L crusaders) it's painful to fill her up...sometimes over $1000... btw, according to the survey, it does 24.6kts @ 4250rpm (WOT) I'm gonna need a 2nd job to put fuel in her.....

With the correct props cruising RPMs should be in the range of 3200 to 3400 assuming 4400 to 4800 at WOT (Wide Open Throttle). Fuel burn will be in the range of 40 to 50 gallons per hour at cruising RPMs. Speed is harder to predict but 18 to 20 kts seems reasonable. A boat that size and weight should really have diesels. -- Message posted via http://www.boatkb.com |
