Questions & Answers
More pics please, what is she like on fuel consumption? mahor (98 • 9:28 am, Tue, 17 Mar )Hi I'm away and back on 27th to post some additional pics of interior and engine room etc. She is ver economical as light and easily driven. Has a sweet spot at 2000rpm where she does 20 knots. Because of the hydrodynamic design and clean underwater plain she'll maintain 15 knots in a 20-25 knot head seaway. Very comfy. gazzu (34 • Tuesday, 17 March 2026 )
