Hi. I am new on here and did a quick search but could not find any information yet so here is a quick question:
I am looking at upgrading my old Enertia props to a newer more fuel efficient set of props for my 2008 345 Conquest. I am hoping to achieve better cruising fuel efficiency. Has any one on here used the newer Eco Enertia prop or any other better prop for their 345? Could you please share the prop details and cruising fuel efficiency result?
It revved to 5800rpm and got up to 40knots (46mph) with fuel consumption of 310-3155lph (around 81gph) so is very close to what was reported.
My cruising rpm is around 4000rpm at 22knots and using a tad less than 110lph (29 gallons) so it is close to that report.
I am trying to improve the fuel consumption at cruising speed/rpm.
Ok it doesn't look like anyone active on this forum has tried this yet. I will give Boston Whaler a call and then give the Enertia Eco prop a try. Will try the one with the same pitch as my current ones.
