When I cruise with my sals up, I keep the engine rpms at +/- 1400 (I have twin Perkins 135hp). This gives also a good charge at the batteries for a good use of the Inverter to have 220V all the time without need of the genset.

Where do you keep your 63'?
I've attached a photo of the yard plate, it probably means mine was one of the first.

I haven't been able to use my main sail yet as the furling system in the main mast is siezed. Hopefully soon! I run both engines at 1500rpm and cruise very economically at 8.5knots. Twin cat 3208NA 210hp.

I keep the boat in Troon on the West coast of Scotland. The Clyde and the Western Isles are my cruising grounds, not the warmest but certainly the nicest!

Where do you cruise with yours?
