Possible, 10+ years of technology change and an optimized setup may give you a better range. Let us know. |

So I got the command link tach gauge to go with it. It gives you visibility of relative voltage and temperature too. Someday, hope to get a NMEA upgrade to my display to get fuel flow and more data. But the best part of my sea trials last Saturday on lake Washington was when I got to 2 hours and could go to WOT for a short burst, I was going about 26 mph at 4400 rpms, hit WOT and it threw me back in my seat. What a difference!
But don't have a good baseline to compare range from old motor to the new one. The new one has power steering too. Big difference from the cables, which kept seizing. you turn the new steering wheel with just a finger. Very happy with my new Yami so far. |

| 4400 RPMs at 26 mph is nice! |
