In Topic: Repowering (?) how much HP?

06 December 2012 - 08:57 PM

For what's it worth, my 4-108/50hp is connected to a 2:91 velvet drive, and at 3000 rpm burns just under a gallon an hour, and turns an 18x14 prop.  PO said you can turn more rpm(4000) but you'd just be wasting diesel... this also is hull speed at that rpm...  boat gross is 22 tons.   Morgan 451
