I searched and found a couple examples, but no performance figures. Looking for some numbers PLEASE. I am considering one of these motors for my boat.
Its a 2007 300 HPDI, BTW. I am familiar with the early model problems and the necessary updates. Will have a mechanic go through motor before purchasing
I know fuel burn would be A LOT more at trolling and idle, not to mention sound level (vs my old F225), but from what I can tell off other boats the cruise burn will be maybe 12 gph at 33+ mph, my best F225 was somewhere around 8 gph at 26-27 mph. I dont mind burning 30% more fuel to go 25% faster.
Also looking at a new 300 Suzuki, but dropping $20k on a motor is not somethign Im excited about unless I decide to keep this boat for a long, long time.
Any info is appreciated.
