She is a true 11 knot boat in slack water running at 1750 RPMS. She consumes 40 gal per hour at that RPM.
With a 4.5-1 reduction and the size of her propellers, she was built for comfort in a heavy sea with no slowing down.  A displacement hull meant for the propellers keep turning and pushing through the ocean with no slowing down of speed despite the conditions.
