I have the KAD32 which is 170 HP, I cruise at 20-22 knots and max out at 29-30 knots. Cruise is about 1 litre per nautical mile.

Thanks both much appreciated.kwil wrote:Cruisers are very rarely deep V they are usually moderate V. The S24 is moderate with a reasonably fine entry. I have done a couple of Irish Sea crossings in F5/6 which is probably rougher than the Solent chop you mention, but it can be tiring keeping your concentration up for 4/5 hours.

Many thankskwil wrote:Chris, it is noisy when the supercharger kicks in, but I quite like the noise. Once above the supercharger range, over about 2500 revs it is no noisier than any diesel. As for fumes, it is only whilst cold once warm there are non. But my engine is only just run in at less than 180 hours.
