I just purchased an '84 46' Uniflite w/ twin 410hp DDA 6-71 diesels. I'm trying to get a feel for what I might expect with respect to fuel efficiency. Hence, if anyone with comparable engines could respond with the following info, I'd be very grateful:
1. Your engine's "sweet spot" in terms of engine RPM and related speed. IOW, at what RPM/speed do you get the best fuel efficiency? 2. What is your average fuel consumption in gph at this ideal RPM/speed? 3. If not the same as #1, what RPM/speed do you generally cruise? 4. What is your fuel efficiency at that RPM/speed? For each engine, I'm told this vessel has a 68 gal. tank forward and a 182 gal tank aft. Do I need to switch between these tanks or is that done automatically? How? Thanks for any and all responses.
