Need for Speed

[birdman123]

can anyone tell me what to expect to get for cruising and max speeds? The boat in question is a 1998 245 Sundowner with the 5.7 (250hp) volvo Duoprop. I've been to the 4W's site and can't find estimated speed ranges for that particular year. Other years have that info posted.....PLEASE HELP.

Re: Need for Speed

Cruising speed is whatever you set the throttle at -- there is no "exact cruising speed". As for wide open throttle speeds I can only guess but I would think mid 40's (depending on load) is in the ball park.
