My son just bought a 1989 Sea Ray Sedan 305, waters are calm and the tach says the engines are turning 2000 RPM's. Any ideas, thanks.

Sorry, not sure what your asking?
He's traveling from just north of Milwaukee to his slip in Chicago, just trying to see about how long it will take him. He says the waters are calm, slight wind to his back and the engines are turning 2000 RPM's, I hope this helps. Thanks
Got it,
Your hoping someone with that exact boat will chime in with what speed a 1989 305 sedan with 260 hp engines will go..
Reasonable request...and I don't know?
WAG I think he's traveling at around 10-12kts???
Would that be with one engine or both turning 2000 RPM? Thanks
I think that we are being had here.:smt021
Air, if he doesn't havea GPS on the boat he can download one to his phone and use it to know his speed. At 2000 rpm's he may not even be fully up on plane. Running like that the boat would be plowing through the water and burning a TON of fuel. Have him step it up to about 3200 rpm's and it will be faster and more economical.
Has the one without wings returned? Alternatively, the op sounds intentionally obtuse.

You may be a knowledgeable person about boat, I am not..... I have not called you names so you might want refrain from calling me names. Then again maybe that makes you feel like a big man, I can guarantee you that you're not.
I was thinking this was a test and was having flashbacks to high school. If a boat left Milwaukee traveling at 2000 rpm, at three p.m. and another boat left Chicago traveling at 4000 RPM at 8 p.m. How many gumballs are in this bowl?
