37’ bertram with 3208 435hp

Anyone have any info on the 435hp cats(3208)? My father is looking at one and we would like to hear from someone who has one. We do a lot of tuna fishing on his 31 and are not sure if the 37 can make the 80 mile run one way with the fuel capacity. Any info would be greatly appreciated.

Re: 25 Bertram flybridge

I’m just looking for 1-2knots at cruise and maybe alittle fuel economy. You don’t think I will see any improvements? I always thought these motors had a lot of tourque.
