Lake Powell April 2013

Chuck,

Good to hear from you. I would say we were in the 1800 to 1900 rpm range at about 5.1 knots on the gps give or take. Jody has the 115 HP Suzuki and I believe he was seeing numbers close to this also. I think Jody's over all weight was probably more than mine. I am using a 13 3/4" diameter 15" pitch aluminum prop. I would think at this speed there would not be to big a difference in rpm or gph if the props are relatively close to the same diameter and pitch.
Tell Penny hello for us.

I burned 35 gallons for the trip. If I wouldn't have ran from the Rincon to Bullfrog at 18 mph I think we would have been pretty close to each other. I'm running a Solas 13-7/8" X 15 Pitch SS.
