    Thanks. Why do you point out 7-8kts? Curious, because at the point I’m only burning about 2+ gph. Is it the EGT, percent RPM, or something else. I do typically cruise at 8-9 kts.

    I do know the hull isn’t capable of higher speeds.

    Numbers are good as long as you realize you have a 7-8K boat for cruise..
