Can anyone tell me about these engines with the 45 Convertible. Cruise and max speed, GPH and any pros and cons about this vessel.

Thanks,

Dennis

I thought I posted here, must have forgotten to press "submit reply" LOL

The engines are solid
Cruise is 25 mph (give or take a bit based on current and wind)
WOT is 30 mph
Fuel burn at cruise is 34 GPH (total for both motors)
Fuel burn WOT is 65 GPH

Seriously, I have not found any cons with this boat.
The only con I found is if you visit marinas that only have 30 amp service, you need to tap two different phases to power this boat.

If you would like to call me, feel free to call

By the way, my boat is a 2007, but the motors are the same. If you buy a 45C, you will need to upgrade the trim tabs. When we chat, I will explain.
