View the latest post Hull Speed


I have a 1981 3007 Aft Cabin powered by twin 270 Crusaders (5.7's) I have a trip coming up next week. It is just under a 40 mile run. I am contemplating trying to make the crossing at hull speed. On this boat I am not sure what speed that would be. What I am thinking of is powering up to 2000 RPM which should give me a rough speed of 9 MPH or so. Is this setting to high. Should I use a lower setting say 1500 or 1600.

If any other 1981 or 1982 3007 owners have done this give me your input as to what settings worked out best for you.
