Re: twin 140 zukes on a 23cc?
Deuce, was that WOT at "lightest" trim angle? Your pic shows an angle of trim than will keep more hull in the water. I ask 'cause I used to run a 23' CC SeaCraft with twin transom-mount 140 Evinrudes that made a WOT speed of 48 mph. It was the tow-boat for a marina where I worked, and had a T-top as well. I would think you would get more from those Yamadogs.

Re: twin 140 zukes on a 23cc?
Fr. Frank,
We only have 2 hours on the engines, so we have not had a chance to do much but some "break in" time. The 49 mph was just a "punch it" to see what would happen. It got up to 6,100 rpm's, so we may have to go up one pitch on the props. We may also have to go up one hole on the engine mounting bracket. Want to get a full load of fuel, people and equipment first. The performance offshore is most important.
