I'm new to Iboats and i've been reading some of the threads on restoration projects and extending hulls; this looks like a great forum.
Anyway, after being on the beach for a few years i'm planning to get back into boating and am looking at a 33' hydra sport with a pair of '92 225 Johnsons. Assuming that it has the optimum props, what kind of cruise and wot can I expect with this boat? What kind of fuel economy should it have at cruise and wot? my intended use is cruising and fishing in the chesapeake. My last boat was a 31' bertram that orginally had 454s but i repowered it with detroit diesels.
thanks.
