I can only talk from what I have been on but triple 350 CC'S are poker run hanging with the twin 500 boat at cruise Speeds. Of course the blue motor boat can get up to a top speed above the CC but in the end they cruise the same with less effort by the CC even with the 6-8 people on board
Yes if you have a top dog boat like your self then really there is no match or comparison at all. |
I know that I don't want trip or quad anything. Don't care if it is a OB or not.
Nate you have a good point but today's closed cooled 500hp I/O's are reliable to. I am more interested in seeing some 30-35 V hull NON CC sport boats with twin 400's. Like the cats are doing. It would be interesting to see how those would run. |

It would be interesting to see how those would run. Mine would run 70 with 400s propped conservatively. A lighter 30 step hull would be good for 80 or more. |

There's at least 20 flavors of those, if you count CCs :D

Someone in the islands must have put 400s on a 33 powerplay already.

I have 500 plus hours on my 300's with nothing but routine maintenance. Also have 3-4 years of warranty left on them:party-smiley-048:

And I am SURE several of those hours are because he Forgot they were running while Partying lol
Damn things are To quiet. |
There probably are a few hours from that like the first time we docked in KW, but I also usually leave one idling while anchored(with the throttle only button engaged so the prop can't spin) as a generator to keep the house battery up. The 300's at idle are .4 gph each. You can't run a generator for that little fuel usage and warranty is unlimited hours(and I don't have a generator).
