Yea I think the motor will loosen up a little and when we are able to trim it out properly I think 30mph at WOT should be achievable. Remember I have around 150-200kgs of extra weight with the extra fuel, dual batteries, tuna tubes (full of water) and the large live bait tank. Anyway we will see how we get on. |

Were not 100% sure of the exact fuel usage, but we didn't even use 1/4 of the tank. so less that 12 liters. I am going to hook the HDS7 up to the fuel system so I have exact fuel burn data. Just out of interest, where does your anti cavitation plate sit in relation to the bottom of the hull? |
