</p><p style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium"><font face="Verdana" size="4">Hello
Just bought the above Tiara and we are very happy with the boat at this time. My only concern is that according to the specs on the diesel engines we should be turning 3000 RPM's . At WOT we only hit 2700, even with a light load (about 1/4 tank). At 2700 we are at about 32 MPH, the boat feels great and I am getting no signs that the we are laboring the engines (no black smoke). </font></p><p style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium"><font face="Verdana" size="4">The specs show this boat and power package at 36 MPH at WOT. I have heard that the numbers from Tiara may be a bit optimistic and my boat is a 1999, not new. Wondering if the tach could be off or I have the wrong props on the boat. </font></p><p style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium"><font face="Verdana" size="4">Is there anyone out there that could share some information on their real world experience with this 35 Open and Cummins diesels? It cruises at 27 to 28 MPH turning 2350 RPM's and feels great. Just trying to see what others with same boat feel.</font></p><p style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: medium"><font face="Verdana" size="4">Thanks for any input you may have!</font></p>
