I will be back in Florida by the middle of August..for your sake I hope you sell it before then if not I will certainly take a look at it..in the mean time can you tell me what your optimum cruise speed is, rpm and fuel consumption. Thanks cliff

The boat cruises nicely at 8.6knts / 10 mph running 2k rpms, burning 3-4 gallons per hours. With a 220 fuel capacity, you get 55 hours of running time and 550 statute me range (assuming my math isn’t wrong. Lol)

The boat has been sold.

Thanks all!
Jason

Thank god. I was starting to get nervous about the fact I paid 25k for mine in worse shape..

that looked like a nice boat at a good price..
