RE: Buying decision, Turbo or Not ?
the californian was designed with the GB as a model, but flatter bottom towards the stern and larger engines to make it possible for higher speeds.
to me that is one of the highlights of the californians. we have the 38'.
we have the twin turbo 260hp, i generally run them between 1500 and 2200 rpm.
the boat pretty much does 5kts in idle (600 rpm), 10kts at 1500 rpm.
