Vessel Info: Buying a Tiara 2001 3100

09-10-2021, 06:34 AM

I'm looking at a 3100 Open with Cummins 5.9 Diesels. WOT is 30 knots at 2600 RPMs. I'm a bit concerned about the 2600 RPMs as the spec says the engine should get 2800 max. I would appreciate input from this group on those engines. Also, if anyone has performance data for those engines on a 3100 they could share that would be helpful (WOT speed and RPMs, Cruising speed & RPMs, etc).
Thanks
