Re: Seawind 1160 Lite Catamaran

We have our antifoul/paint line about 100mm above the actual waterline. If you don't do this, you end up with stains and green crud on the paint just above the waterline.

On one motor we do around 5.5 knots at 3800 RPM, using about 2 litres per hour. Two engines at 3800 is around 6.8 knots, using maybe...
