Scepter with 383 stroker ?
 
What to expect with a new engine /IO of this type in terms of fuel burn, cruise speed and WOT ?

Thanks

The owner is a local charter captain and so is his brother Entourage. He's moving up to a much larger boat. I just talked to him last week about a different boat.

Nice build up, but no real information he is looking for (And I was curious too). The 21' is a whole different story...

We had the factory power steering and it just couldn't handle it, too much slack in it. If we had better hydraulic steering we could have buried it cause we didn't have it WOT yet.

I have posted this numerous times...3 different boats...21' 24' 30'
All with SBC, different hulls different fuel delivery and different top speed and cruise. One thing remains constant they all burn 8-9 gallons per hour @ there cruising rpm. Approximately 2800-3200 rpm ...take it to the bank. Over 1000 documented hours. :D
