good friend of mine has a 28 Premier with twin 300 Yammies. Very nice boat and it runs in the 60's, amazingly smooth ride at speed to. The thing is rock solid, it reminds me of how the Jet Express runs between our islands out here.

Yes, the range at the most economical cruising speed would be 2163 miles. The Atlantic is 3000 miles so they wouldn't quite make it
