My boat Bounty (340 DA 2000) has twin 7.4 MPI with vee drive and closed cooling system. The data plate on the engines indicate WOT (wide open throttle) of 4000-4400 rpms. What does this really mean in terms of sustainable RPMs for cruising for durations of roughly 1-1.5 hours? Can I safely cruise at 4000 RPMs when sea conditions seem to warrant it?
