We have a 1989 38' Coastal Barracuda. Do anyone know what the
proper size prop is for this boat with Volvo 350's and outdrives,
and how many RPM's, and how fast it should go?
Oh, and what RPM and speed gets the best fuel mileage?

Best mpg would be with one engine @ a max of about 3.5 mpg, or both
engines at about 25 mph. Top speed shod be about 30 mph.
