Below are the prop charts from Cobalt on the R30. The headings didn't come through real clear, so i wrote underneath each one the headers.

After reviewing the prop charts I wasn't too concerned by having the dual 300s.
Congratulations! Yes that was a nice find. Soooooo

Sold it locally to my boss actually. Could be a huge mistake, but they were very excited to get into boating.

I fell for the sippy (or soppy as AJC prefers) cup link too. I’m none the wiser. :roll:

I finally got some smooth water to try out the R30 (dual 300s)

I had 13 people on board, this was fully wide open throttle and trimmed the best I could. Definitely happy hitting almost 52MPH with such a full load!

45.2Gal/hr fuel flow!

That's pretty good for such a big boat and a full load.
