Re: Boat Manufacture Ratings

I think you actually mean engine/drive specifications? Anything else would be actual test data and sounds like you're thinking more like a car manufacturer's info . . . Boat manufacturers don't usually keep good solid data like that with a variety of engines that might have been available.

If what I guess is correct, your engine made 260 bhp at the crankshaft which would be equal to around 230 at the propshaft as they're rated today. Recommended wide open throttle (WOT) RPM would be 4200 - 4600.
