Looks like your sweet spot is between 20 and 22 knots. Significantly faster than your old sweet spot with the gas engines which was around 15 knots correct?

Correct.

We have doubled our range at the old cruise speed and nearly done the same at the new cruise speed.

This has opened up our options for a day or weekend cruise and decreased the need for a time consuming fuel stop so that we can still arrive at quite a distance during daylight hours.

The next step is to dial in the fine tuning, and then perhaps do a prop adjustment.

Then we're good to go !
