Finally the maiden voyage of the Avanti, while it was a short test drive, the boat is done.
After 6 months of stress, frustration and head ache she had her first plunge.
With a standard 28” prop, 70.1 KNT. In smooth seas. So who gets the beer? Do the math. (80.67 MPH)
After some dialing in, I think I’ll get mid 80’s.
I owe some beer to some one, and gladly take care of it. Time to play.
