Expected R30 Speed with 380s

[thunderfli]

My R30 with twin 380s has hit 62 via GPS wide open in ideal conditions

That’s what I’m hoping! Gonna try to get her out this weekend and play with the trim and tabs a bit. Thanks!!

My boat has auto trim and tabs as well. Tabs should be flat for max speed - Auto trim in the "off" mode seemed to help as I could manually adjust to conditions seeking top speed.

At about 300 hours the engines seemed to loosen up a bit and give me some extra RPMs . Report back! It's a real rush for a big luxury boat to run 60!

Finally had a chance to try it out and you were right. Some chop on the lake with winds around 15-20 kts. Autoglide off and tabs full up. Trim assist off and I manually trimmed the stern drive to max speed. Got 59 mph. Pretty sure I could squeeze a few more under ideal smooth conditions.

Thank you to everyone that helped me figure this out!

Awesome! Glad to help. You can dial it in a little more I bet with some practice and improved conditions. My top speed runs seem to always be in very light chop as opposed to butter smooth water for some reason. These big beasts can really fly.
