Performance…. To be or Knot to be
 
3 Attachment(s)
Lots of performance numbers spoken of but I figured I would post some up to share what I am seeing on a typical offshore run for me.

Melissa and I with 2 tanks and dive gear, some trolling gear and 85 gallons of rec 90. Seas were 2’ or less. I was just trying to keep costs down with speed but wanted to see if I could see the elusive 3 nautical per gallon. Unfortunately that was only achieved a couple of knots above displacement speed. Below are some of the most efficient numbers I could achieve with multiple adjustments in trim and tab.

For those who like to see higher statute (mph) figures you can compare mine by multiplying them by 1.15 :)

Do you get a lot of spray running like that?

None. My bracket is a little higher than recommended.

All the things the latest IPhone can do but still can’t orient a photo based on how it was taken….. I need a dumb phone:D

When I turn my I pad sideways to look at the picture, the picture turns as well. Go figure.
