[C320-list] Another Yammer 27 question

[Brian Carol Mclamb]

Congratulations on your new boat.  I have a Yanmar in my 2006 and it run very happily between 2500 to 2750 RPM.  If the intubation calls for it I can comfortably cruise at 3100 for short periods up to 1/2 hour max without difficulty.  My cruising grounds are round Pamlico Sound and the ICW of North Carolina.  Brian of Serenity #1075.
