| Dave H. For what it is worth I am pretty sure that you can get at least 2 knots at .750kW. People get 1.2 knts with sculling oars. The key is a clean bottom and prop. I just got my bottom and prop cleaned and it was a dramatic performance nudge. I got 3 knots at 1kW. Of course this is only in dead calm water in the marina. This is the first time I was able to monitor my performance so well because I recently installed a new meter. By the way, I can highly recommend the Cycle Analyst. I bought the high volt/current model in the large screen format. They have every imaginable parameter available, and have excellent customer support. They are hand built in Vancouver Canada. I have not done this but you should also be able to wire in a speedo log to get Watts/mile and a myriad of other intersting electro-data. I will try to post pictures of the Cycle Analyst installation to the files section. Fair winds, Hans From: Dave Hackett <dave.hackett@ |
