1981 26 ' Sisu : Isuzu 6 BG1T TQW ( 256 hp @ 2500 ) ZF 1.27 to 1 , 1 1/2" shaft w/ nybral 18 " x 15 " . Shitty bottom , no cage , no keel cooler , I'm assuming 8000 to 9000 lbs . She turns 17 to 18 knot on the pin @ 2500 , 13 to 14 knots @ 2200 , 12 knots @ 2000 which seems to be the sweet spot . Just wondering if this sounds about right and what speed do i need to worry about keel walking if i were to upgrade to get a 17 to 18 knot cruise . Thanks Dennis
