I'm looking for some performance numbers cruise rpm/fuel burn/speed. I know sea conditions cause these numbers to vary just looking for some input. Thanks

I owned a 94 carb'ed 28 from 6/94 until 8/99, in fact it was hull 16 of the 28. I disliked the gas engines but I'll try to recant my numbers for you. I ran mine around 3300 rpms, I seem to recall. The boat cruised at 27-28 knots, I know. I didn't have a floscan, but I'd estimate the thing burned about 35 GPH at my cruise (it may have been a bit more), at dead bait troll, I estimate I burned less than 10 GPH. My round trip offshore excursions from Rudee Inlet to 100 fathoms & back used around 200-240 gallons. I caught a lot of white marlins on her. Hope this helps,
Stuart
