  • Since many of people have asked what the numbers on the v10 400s, I decided to do a video on them! I started at 3000 rpm up to WOT! The mercuries are very fuel efficient on the freeman and I'm more than happy I went with them!
    3000rpm - 21mph 1.3mpg
    3500rpm - 29mph 1.48mpg
    4000rpm - 38mph 1.46mpg
    4500rpm - 48mph 1.35mpg
    5000rpm - 51mph 1.10mpg-against tide/wind
    5500rpm - 57mph 1.04mpg-against tide/wind
    6000rpm - 67mph 1.04mpg
    RPM Limiter (WOT) - 69mph 0.96mpg

    Those numbers are insane, I love Yammy but went with the 300 mercs on my new boat. Pushing 300 hours and they haven’t missed a beat. Mercury is about 10 years ahead of the competition

    Excellent, thank you for sharing! I’m having a new SeaHunter Built with 400 v10’s white like yours based out of Naples. I don’t going into the mold till this fall. I pan to book an outing with you this summer with my brother in law and my nephew !

    Appreciate the video. V10 400s on jackplates are my top choice for my next 30’ Wildcat. Even though we’re smaller our dry weight is about 1,000# lighter. I’m interested in what your real world economy is. I’ve had Zuke 300s and now Zuke 350s (both are very close in efficiency) and need to figure out how long it’ll take to break even on the V10$ versus trying their V8 300s.

    I have Yami’s and when it comes to sound, Merc’s blow them away. That’s literally my biggest complaint as well with Yami’s. I do the the autotrim that comes with Merc’s tho, that’s an awesome feature!

    Awesome video man! What length engines do you have 25" or 30", also what props are you running? Can you run on 1 engine pretty well? Reason I ask, I'm building a 31 ameracat and I've got to pick motors fast so I have them in time. Thanks in advance, and congratulations on a perfect boat brother!

    • @Reese_Asher

      The 400s only have 1 prop option. Just pick a pitch

    WOT On that motor should be 6350. Prop accordingly

  • @mosquitofleetfishing6599
    @mosquitofleetfishing6599 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Those props don’t like low RPMs. Might look at backing the pitch off 2” and putting some cup in it to get your mpg up at 3500rpm cruise.

      That is what I was going to ask. The gauge is showing double the number he is saying. I can only guess that gauge is for one engine so both engines would be half? Still doesn't make sense though because the gauge should be for both engines.
