2014 NC14 with volvo penta IPS drives
Just took it from Seattle down to LA, 236 gallon fuel capacity.

At 1500 rpms, we could do 9.5 knots, and have a range of 32 hrs
At 3000 rpms, we could do 20 knots, and have a range of 7 hrs

The volvo 500s twins are quite far back in the boat, along with the IPS pods, and fuel tanks. Makes the boat pretty light up forward allowing it to be a semi displacment planing hull.

Took us 6 days to get down to long beach.
