Replaced 2 Yamaha 115 With 2 DB140GB ! The 115s were way better They used 6-7 gallons a Hour and the 140s use 7-8 at same RPM with a Slower Speed !!Waiting for 14x23 Props ! Very hard to Get!!!
I had Power Tech build me 14x23 props ! I was red lining with Suzuki 14x 21 !!! The Power Tech Dropped my RPM by close to 1000 RPMs Top Speed about the Same as 115s Yamaha!! So you tell me Why a 13.75x17 Will run same speed at 5k as a 140 Suzuki with 14x23 at 5.5k

Возможно это особенности корпуса. То есть дело не столько в моторе. Впрочем, правильный подбор винтов должен помочь найти оптимум.
