  • 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

    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!

    These boats have very impressive fuel economy. The larger Freemans with the quad 300s will still get 1.1 miles to the gallon.

    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

    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.

      How fast is your 34?

    • @charlieodom9107
      @charlieodom9107 Месяц назад

      @rdfish I don't have a piece of shit Freeman, but several V-Hull 34' boats run this fast with the same power. Yellowfin is just as fast with the same power, and will accept more power than yours.
      A Fountain 34 will run within a couple MPH of your boat with 800hp, and it weighs more than yours! It will ALSO accept more power and is a better boat.
      You want more examples of better boats? Cats are SUPPOSED to be faster than V-Hulls, but your POS is built like shit and slow as fuck.

    • @ronniebeam4547
      @ronniebeam4547 15 дней назад

      Those are nice boats your name dropping....but they don't hold a candle to the ass of a freeman! Not only is the freeman wider, has more square footage, looks better, and rides so much better than your examples...I'd have to see numbers on a monohull that is supposed to be so much faster than a cat.
