  1. Thanks Steve, you’re a wealth of knowledge.
  2. Thanks Split Pin, from the looks of things the quoted RPM is full throttle. Any suggestions on what RPM they are happy to run at all day long, can’t imagine flat out is a good idea. Modern engines would t like it but not sure about what these “old girls” are like. Re: 2UC, it definately says that on the documents I have.
  3. Yes, it’s 16m x 5m x 2m commercial steel fishing hull.

    Gardner 5L3

    Hello my friends, I’m looking at purchase a project boat that has a Gardner 5L3 motor, 95 HP, and I’m struggling to find any information on fuel consumption. I read they are reliable and efficient but was wondering if anyone could give me some information on the fuel burn and anything I should look out for. It’s done 50 hours since rebuild and has a 2UC 2:1 gearbox. I have been told it does 8-9 knots at 900rpm with a porter 36/21 prop. Any help is greatly appreciated.
