[C320-list] GFO and Autoprop first report

[Russell Monaco]

Escape made its initial voyage of the year today. Also its initial voyage with GFO packing and the Autoprop, here is my incredible report:

GFO:
Completely dry, not a drip after motoring for about 2 hours! also nut was not very hot!! unbelievably impressive...$15 well spent!

Autoprop:
OMG!!!!  We no longer have a sail boat its a high preformance motor boat!  we had to motor, hadn't gotten the sails from the loft yet, so we motored for 2 hours, the entire time, the GPS SOG said high 6's, 6.8, 6.9 while at 2,600rpms and the speed thru the water on the knot meter showed us above 8 kts the entire time (can that be true??)
