95lit/hour and engine on 6100 revs.
The most amazing is that boat is consuming 29,8 lit/hour and engine on 4000 revs.

I assume that is per engine???
I think it proves over 1/2 or 3/4 throttle a 2 stroke or a 4 stroke will use roughly the same amount of fuel.
How fast are you going at 4,000 rpm? Thats pretty good crusing consumption.

Yes per engine, boat is doing just over 40 knots in 4000 revs so the cruising consumption is great.
Yes about the consumption of 2-strokes but dont forget the oil and noice

Petrov,
Have you fitted a Suz 300 on an Osprey yet? If yes, how was the top speed and fuel consumption at 30 kn?
regards,
Paul

Not cheap, approx same price as UK but we have the pos to withdraw tax (also VAT) on fuel when its commercial use.
Props are today same, 16X26 standard Suz props but are thinking of putting a 4 blade on the midle engine, will keep you updated of how that will be.
