How Fast does ya boat go ! part 2

[skippa]

17ft Haines
115 Yammie
80k's @ 5500

I'm more interested that she will plane @ 12mph and hold 20mph into typical Moreton Bay chop of 15nts or more without bashin' the fillings outta your teeth.

Cheers,

OK I'll bite.

6.2mtr Sportfish Supervee, Centre Cab, with a 130Hp Honda 4 banger on her bum. " ReBait ", for those who don't know.

Revs to 5500@62kph. Using a 4 blade 13 1/4 x 15 Solas S/S Prop. Cruising rev is 4200rpm and at that rate will use .65 ltrs / klm ( loaded , )

The design here is to get a holeshot for bar work, therefore top end is reduced.

Further, my 4.1 Stessl Edge Dingy has a 40 Yam 2 stroke w/ ss prop, and will boogey to 65kph, 1 up on the river. But that is scarey. ! Usually run it trimmed in for bay and offshore work, which brings her back to 55kph ( if one can go flat out offshore ).

Cheers Phill
