1994 Convertible 36' Cruise Speed - Matta0413 - 10-17-2022

Going to be looking at a 36' Convertible 1994 with the Crusader 502's. Does anyone have experience with this package? Is there enough horse power/torque for a boat this size? Does anyone have experience with this package that can share? Looking for cruise speed/RPM, handling, etc..

I am selling by 31 Open and hoping to move up to something with a salon. Want to stick with the Tiara's.

I have an '88 with 454's that are pretty fresh.  Cruise at 18-20 mph, 3200 rpms and she will hit 30mph on the pins.  It is a comfortable boat that gets along fine but it is not a speed demon by any stretch.
