Re: Speed Curve
Seems we have the same rare powerplants. I just purchase my 3607 late summer this year, and put about 40 hours on the boat since. Purred like a kitten. I don't know about the specific power settings you mentioned but here is what I had recorded:
Idle 3-4 kts
1000 rpm 6kts
1500 rpm 7-8 kts
1800 rpm 8-9 kts
2200 rpm 10-11 kts
2500 rpm 13-14 kts
Full throttle (done during the Mech Survey) produced 18kts
I have 22 inch props, Don't know the pitch as the Prop Speed polymer obscured the stamp, but suspect they are coarser pitch than the originals
Average fuel burn over those 40 hours was just over 10L p/hr p/eng. I am pretty happy with that as my speedy boat days are behind me
Good luck with your new yacht
