Motor is a Yamaha 40hp 2 stroke and it goes great: top speed is 30knots/55km/hr (but needs really flat water to get that) and general cruise speed is in the 20-22knots/35-40km/hr range at which I get 3km/l Have no idea what they cost new - mine is probably 17 or so years old - and I've owned the boat for the past 15 years |
