Single PARSUN F300 Delivers 40-Knot Performance on an 8.6-Meter European Hardtop Boat
Application Overview
A European customer working with BTMCo paired an 8.6-meter hardtop cabin boat with a single PARSUN F300. The boat measures 2.85 meters across the beam, has a 0.75-meter draft, and weighs 2.15 metric tons fully loaded. A 17-inch stainless-steel propeller completes the propulsion setup.
Recorded Performance
On-water data records a cruising speed of 30 knots and a maximum speed of 40 knots at 5,600 RPM. The result demonstrates strong cruise capability and top-end speed from a single-engine installation on a fully loaded cabin boat.
Why the Setup Fits
This application shows how the F300 can support modern recreational boats that require high output without a twin-engine transom. The single-engine layout keeps the installation straightforward while preserving useful stern space for boarding and leisure activities.
