Re: Coming home
This is most likely cruising between 22 to 24 knots. Does the running angle/attitude look right?

Re: Coming home
The boat feels and rides heavy. It is getting 30 knots at WOT with 300hp cummins. 24 knots at 2400 rpm. Depending on how it is loaded. 4 blade dqx wheels.

Re: Coming home
I anm just shy of 30 knots at WOT with the 270's. I think you need to check the size on those wheels. What transmission reduction are you running?
You should be over 30 knots at the top end. I am at 24 knots also at 2400 RPM.

Re: Coming home
Maybe he is propped for 250hp? Are those Cummins CPL970? They should be underpropped if they are. What is your WOT RPM?

Re: Coming home
They are the older model cummins and right now they are propped to reach 3000 rpm at WOT.
