Finally,I'm in the water - some results
Well after 18 months of work and lots of help from many of you, I'm in the water. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
I'll get around to posting the work related pictures as soon as I can figure out to to post a picture, but here are some performance results I noted today. With 100 gal of fuel and three people onboard I was cruising at 4000 RPM and doing 25.5 kts.This was in a 2-3ft. head sea. Not bad and I'm very satisfied. At WOT I was doing 37 KTS at 5200RPM. Oh yeah I have a Yamaha 250 EFI mounted on the transom and it's spinning at 15 1/2 x 17 Stainless prop. I was burning 12-13 gal/hr at cruise. And the fluke fishing wasn't bad either as my son and I caught 12 and kept 6 between 3 and 5 lbs. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] Any comments on the performance? Dink |
