Cummins Fuel Burn Table
Posted: June 10th, 2019, 3:01 pm
396, Cummins 370's - I am wondering if anyone has developed a table for the 396 on fuel burn through power settings.
Before the "depends" response, I would make the following assumptions:
1. fuel and water load would be recognized
2. souls on board with gear would be "normal"
3. Sea State would be low to moderate (1-3)
4. tide/current conditions would be minimal (slack)
As well, I am looking for opinions on best cruise speed.
I apologize up front for being a little direct, but as we all know, this topic can go sideways and outside of the lines pretty quickly without a few parameters!
I appreciate your feedback in advance folks.
K/r.
