I see a lot of questions and comments on here about running at WOT or running on plane. That led me to wonder how much time (as a percentage) you spend running your boat on plane vs running at hull speed or "cocktail speed" as I've heard it referred to.
When I bought our boat (2010) I was told that I should run the engines at 80% throttle about 20% of the time. I probably don't run at 80% that often, probably more like 10% of the time.
What say you?
