Re: Switching active stations.
I'm a fairly new Carver owner and do not know the answers to these questions. My boat will top out at 2400 rpm, when on plane, I tend to cruise at about 2150-2200 which gets me about 19-20 mph, depending on wind etc. 1050-1100 rpm tends to get 9-10 mph. I would also like to know my optimum, fuel economy, speeds, I have the same 480 hp engines.

Re: Switching active stations.
I burn very close to 18 GPH per engine at 2200 rpm
Do u know your prop size ??
Also david very important.
Your top rpm otherwise know as WOT
(Wide open throtle) for those engines should
Be 2600. If u max out at 2400 u can do
Some damage to the engines. Please ask your mechanic
Or anybody. The engines will not last.
Hope this helps
Thanks
John
