Spot the (new to me) boat

[burgundyben]

Ben, that was an average LPH so some of our running around would have been at 5 / 6 knots, however this is what I recently worked out for a range figure;

10.5knot cruise @ 2050rpm = 13LPH

10.5 / 13L = 0.81 nm/l
10.5 / 2.86g = 3.67nm / gallon

100gallon tank / 454 litres
20% reserve = 20g / 91L

so range = 363L x 0.81 = 294.03 nm

i.e. its an economical boat, but not that fast, sit back, put the autopilot on and drink tea.

(Previous owner said that he averaged 11lph at 10knot cruise, and they did take the boat round the UK so I think his figure would be pretty accurate so may even be better than the above)

Thanks for the clarification.

I know one should never ask a lady her weight, but what does Tulana displace?

I have not put her on the scales you understand, but the paperwork with the boat stated 6 tons (5500kgs)
