On my '85 F32 I generally cruise at 2900-3000 RPM. Putting me at 18-20Kts. with a calm sea. Although I can get into the 4000 plus range, I rarely run them even close to that. Crusader 270's.

Just curious to what RPM and speed those who run gassers achieve when cruising...

Thanks.

On my F32, I replaced the 12,000 BTU Cruisair w/ rotory knobs with a 16,000 BTU Cruisair unit and SMXII control. The mistake someone had done before was to install the older unit below my cockpit.

Jav, that looks fanstastic! However, are you going to re-install your railing around the cockpit? I was thinking at one time, about removing mine for that clean look...but the depth on the sedan is very shallow from the cockpit sole to the gunnel. On the 32 express, with or without the flybridge, th...

Then try using Meguiar's PLASTX. I use it for removing the haze and fine scratches in composit headlamps. Does wonders on them...just don't have the need to use it on the boat. Good luck.

Yes, Plexus! Just don't use paper towels.

The front (midship) grills face aft and the rear grills face forward.
