It’s happiest around 2200 RPM at roughly 6 knots. Anything more than that it sounds like the hull is shaking apart. Not a lot of sound deadening in general with that diesel, but it gets pretty loud at higher RPMs. Since I replaced the shaft, cutlass bearing, installed a dripless shaft seal when purchased 4 years ago, vibration is likely motor mounts which are probably original.
