I had a patient tell me that his Albin 28 cruised at 18 knots with a burn
rate of 13 gph. I found those numbers hard to believe, but amazing if true.
Let us know.

A new 28 True World Marine (planning hull) with a 315 Yanmar on a jack shaft
does 30 mph cruise while burning approx. 6-7 gph.
And 40 mph top end burning 10 - 11 gph

So the ads claim. Interesting boat, really, but unfortunately made by
the Moonies.

Seriously!?

And as I recall the similar size Shamrock with a Cummins ran at about the same
speed and fuel burn.

Looks like it's your turn in the barrel. Good luck.

True.

I used to think Harry was over the top in his attitude towards her. But now,
I'm beginning to get it.

I think I'll give it a rest with the female jaxxass.
