290CC Prop Test

Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! It was nice to get a few days off after a busy year in PDE!

The 290CC performance data has been officially released on our website in the prop test section for the 290CC. The test was performed with twin Yamaha 250's swinging 3 bladed 15 1/4" x 19" Yamaha props. Cruise was 32.4 mph @ 4000 rpm (1.9 mpg), and WOT was 49.7 mph @ 5900 rpm (1.1 mpg)... we'll release Suzuki 250 tests shortly (on boat #5 for the New Orleans Boat Show in Jan).

We're doing a photoshoot today out of Beaufort, NC... it should be a good day for testing and running the 290CC since it's barely above freezing here in NC! Hopefully the integrated windshield and hardtop will keep the drivers warm. Should have some good photos to share here and in the 290CC Photo Album.

I was incorrect in thinking that the prop test for the Suzuki 250's wouldn't be done until Jan, it was completed during yesterday and is available on our website.
