I am still trying to close on my 380, I am curious as to your GPH and cruising speed to obtain this GPH. I know most of the larger boats will be diesel, but I am still curious. I am not trying to obtain a gas versus diesel comparison, just to see what a possible length versus GPH possible increase analysis shows.
I am figuring on somewhere between 30 -35 GPH at somewhere around 22-24 knots. I am guessing this will be at RPM wise, 3200 - 3400 range.
Who knows in a few years I might be interested in moving up when I retire. :huh:
I am primarily interested in lets say boats >44 - <60 foot
Hopefully I will have the 2002 Sundancer 380, 8.1s engines before the first of September I have been working on buying, that is if "Hurricane/tropical storm Fay" does not do any damage, as the boat is in a slip at Daytona, Halifax Harbor marina.
Thanks
