My N46 with a Lugger, dry stack, when we brought it down from Long Island and outside, we ran it WOT 12 to 24 hours a day and night. The only problem was, it would approach ‘over temp’ so we’d cut back a bit on the throttle until the temp returned to normal. This started about mid FL. Everything was boiled out (keel cooler and engine).... so I attribute to the temp of the FL water. I did like the Lugger. I was your basic engine, nothing fancy or electronic, it worked or didn’t work and it always worked.
