Pros, silent idle, really responsive and loads of torque Cons, louder than I would have thought once the RPM's are getting up. 20kn cruse at 4000rpm, 1.3Nm/L is good but faster around 5000rpm plus is getting quite loud. Currently proped with a 16in Enertia and maxing our at 6300rpm, 35kn so may look to prop up a bit, forgo some holeshot for lower revs. Boat is a Buccaneer 565. |
