"i have a 58 hatt tri cabin i am looking at. it has DD 12v71 naturals
displacement is 63000
cruise speed is 15 knts and 19 at top speed. 1 gal a mile per motor at cruise as told by broker.
i will be traveling to central america from FLA so fuel consumption is definitely an issue
QUESTION: how much fuel does each motor use at cruise and top speed for such a heavy vessel?
motors have 850hrs after in place rebuild. told they run like a champ no smoke, both get to full rpm. owner was not there to run motors so this will be double checked by yacht survey co.
QUESTION: how many hours till you need to rebuild on average?
it is a 1975 58' tri cabin for 120k. comparing prices this seems to be a good deal. which makes me wonder.....
thanks in advance, Drew"
