How are these girls on fuel say a 6.2 with twin 150 2004 4 strokes

[Skusto]

depends how u drive them most likely 25l an hour cruising for each one of them.

I think that twin 150 4 strokes might be a bit heavy for a KC 6.2 . It's probably more power than you need as most have twin 90's and appear to go best with twin 115's which seems to be best balance of power/weight.

Yea and with 90 on 4000ish rpms what fuel would they use?

I have a mate with twin 140's and its wayyyy over powered. He gets nearly 90km/h with em. He uses around 22-25l per hour per engine

A 6.2 with 90's your going to be sitting on around 4800 rpm to get the boat going properly with the ii5's you'll be able to drop back to 4200! and that will be about 20l/per hr with 115 4's

So that is 20 lph combined

No a side, but i'll change that figure and make it aroung 17l per side per hr

I have been checking out an old thread on KC 6.2 and from that twin 140's would make a KC 6.2 bum heavy, you might need wellies if you have too many fishing down the back. Do a search and have a read for yourself, there's a lot of good info.

That is a approx what speed?

The figures for a 5.2 kc with 100 yamaha 4 strokes at a say 26 knts in a good sea ?

[Maccas]

Don't know anyone with 100 Yammie 4 strokes on a 5.2 KC as they would be too heavy without redoing the pods. Kitty Kat has put newSuzuki 90 4 strokes (weigh 152 kg each)on his KC 5.2 so PM him for more info on fuel. His boat still looks a bit bum heavy at rest compared to others with 2 stroke 70 Yammies at 105kg each. Some on here have fitted 4 stroke 60 Yammies (120kg each) and are happy. There is a couple of threads on here, do a search on repowering KC 5.2
