Default Re: Inboard SeaCrafts

Just for comparison, I run a 1975 Sceptre inboard, V-Drive, with a 260HP, 350. The prop is 16x15 and there is a reduction, 1:1.15 I think. On my GPS I get 19knts @2800rpm cruising and 30knts, with a clean bottom, @ 4200rpm.

My fuel, 62 gallons is forward of the engine. The wieght distribution allows my boat stay flat as you run up the rpms. Unlike other I/O boats I have run, there is no real transition when the hull planes out and speed picks up fast.
