2003 36 outlaw 496 ho cruise speed?
 

I tried to search but what would the best cruise speed be for my boat? Thanks guys.

And what rpm and mpg ect just really curious

What's your wot range and props? Cruise should be 3500 - 3800 rpms.
MPG? Lol. Lower 3k net you maybe 1-1.5pmg

26 labbed 4blade props think its around 5k wot

I ru. Right around 70mph wot perfect conditions

3 rd time I have written this reply.. keeps getting deleted..

OK.. "mittens" on here is pushing 26b1 with 342 and mags

Our cruise speeds are the same: (I am running 25m+)
3500 @50-52
4000@ 60ish

IMO, conservative, easy on motors.. 3200-3600 and hard cruise (usually poker runs) 4k max


Have fun, hope this helps!

He speeks the truth! I normally runa around 3300-3400 rpms is my nromal runa round speed.

Here's my current exact boat thst the previous owner took a video. Does the 4000rpms @50mph sound right

Nope.. too slow, you should be at 50 around 34-3500 in flat water.. 4k, you should be around 60.

I was right around 50 at 4k with my 25ol with a 23p prop.

Just watched the video.. nice boat!!

2 things I noticed.. looks like the prop wash was low.. perhaps trimming up to get boat out of water..

2nd.. have you checked speeds with GPS??? I wouldnt trust a non-gps speed!!
